Tyson Langley makes initial appearance in case of Peoria double murder.
PEORIA, AZ (CBS5) -
A 15-year-old boy is being held in Maricopa County Jail on a $2 million after he allegedly shot and killed two people during an armed robbery in Peoria last week.
Tyson Langley was in court Monday morning on two counts of first-degree murder.
Police say on Jan. 17, Langley killed two people and wounded another while robbing a smoke shop.
Days later he was located by Los Angeles police and returned to Arizona accompanied by Peoria detectives.
Langley has a history with law enforcement. He was arrested in 2008 on theft charges, according to Maricopa County Juvenile Court records, but was never formally charged. Police records show that Langley pulled a Mercedes emblem off a car and he was put on a diversion program.
