Tevin Biles-Thomas, an active-duty Army soldier and brother of Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, was arrested at Fort Stewart, Georgia, on Thursday and charged with murder, voluntary manslaughter, and other charges tied to a triple homicide in Cleveland on New Year's Eve. Cleveland police say three men were shot dead and two people seriously wounded at a party in an Airbnb above a pizzeria. Biles-Thomas, who attended high school in Cleveland, is currently being held in county jail in Hinesville, Georgia. He is the only person charged so far in the shootings.
