Dr. arrested for 2 double homicides- including the stabbing death of an 11 year old
An Indiana doctor was arrested Monday in the unsolved deaths of four people who had ties to Creighton University's medical school, including the 11-year-old son of a professor who helped fire him from the Nebraska university in 2001.
Dr. Anthony Garcia, 40, is suspected in the May deaths of pathology professor Roger Brumback and his wife, Mary, as well as the 2008 stabbing deaths of 11-year-old Thomas Hunter and his family housekeeper, Shirlee Sherman, according to Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer.
Roger Brumback and Thomas Hunter's father worked in Creighton's pathology department and had fired Garcia for erratic behavior in 2001, when he was a pathology resident, Schmaderer said. The university is in Omaha. The police chief said Garcia is being held on four counts of first-degree murder and four counts of using a weapon to commit a felony.
Schmaderer declined to discuss details of the evidence against Garcia, who lives in Terre Haute, Ind. Garcia doesn't have a listed phone number in the area, and information about whether he had an attorney wasn't immediately available.
