Bernadene S. Lebert-Davis, 43 of Newton County and Robert M. Kelli-Davis, 21 of Newton County, were shot and killed in a residence on the 100 block of Helm Drive off Almon Road Thursday.

The Newton County Sheriff’s Office received a call at approximately 4:22 p.m. from a male subject.

“The subject called 911 and said he shot two of his relatives,” NCSO Dep. Felicia Jefferson.

Robert Davis was arrested and charged with two counts of murder in the killing of his wife and son.

NCSO patrol units responded and came to the residence. "He came out of the residence and was taken into custody without incident," said Jefferson. The two victims were found inside deceased.
