Jones was eventually located in Columbus, roughly two hours south of Toledo, where a SWAT team shot him during an operation.
A 13-year-old girl from Ohio was found brutally killed, raped, and with her hands cut inside an abandoned house as police shot and detained her “animal” father, who had made an appearance on television to draw attention to her disappearance, the next day.
Keimani Latigue’s mangled body was found in a Toledo home that had burned down on Monday, six days after her family reported her missing. One police officer called the incident “one of the most horrific cases I’ve ever heard.” “This is an absolute animal that came into our town”, Columbus Police Lt. Brian Steel told WCMH. The harrowing rape and murder has left the entire community shocked.
Killed Without any Mercy
Steel said that Keimani, who was only a few days shy of turning 14, was found on the second floor of the empty house with her hands severed and her head almost completely decapitated.
Investigators also concluded that the teen had been brutally raped. A Tuesday autopsy confirmed that she died from multiple deep cuts to the neck, according to the coroner’s office, as reported by WTVG.
