Alston

Montrell Ta'Fique Alston was charged with two counts of murder, conspiracy to commit armed robbery and felony conspiracy to commit first-degree burglary, according to a statement from Sheriff Wes Tripp.

It is not clear why Alston, 20, of Scotland Neck, was charged in the murder of a co-conspirator and Tripp was not immediately available for comment as of this report.

Alston joins Jimmel Horton and Tierra Marie Burnell, Harrison's former girlfriend, as alleged suspects in the murder, which occurred at Harrison's residence off Zoo Road South.

The three are being held without the opportunity for bond and have December 4 court dates.
