Their bodies were found in an apartment with the woman's toddler wandering among the corpses. Gevante D. Anderson, 24, is charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond.

Anderson's home had been searched and he spoke with police shortly after the killings, but he wasn't charged until on Friday.

The indictment alleges he shot to death his 21-year-old ex-girlfriend, her 33-year-old boyfriend and her 10-year-old nephew. Her 7-year-nephew was fatally stabbed.

Anderson also faces charges of armed criminal action and first-degree burglary.
