Tampa Bay Rays pitching prospect's wife, son, and mother-in-law murdered, according to an ESPN report.
Police learned of the murders Tuesday morning when a neighbor reported that someone may have been shot. When officers arrived, a deputy found a woman dead in the driveway of a home, Pittsylvania County Sheriff Michael W. Taylor said at a news conference Tuesday afternoon.
The deputy found two other victims inside the home and called for help. More than 100 officers from several law enforcement agencies were involved in the search, which ended with the suspect's arrest shortly after noon, he said.He was treated and released from a hospital because he banged his head against the cage of the police vehicle after his arrest. Taylor said he did not know why Bernard had no clothes on.
"In my wildest dreams, I never could have imagined it. Not him. Of all the people in this world. I never could have imagined it," Bryant Bernard said of his nephew to WSLS. Bernard confirmed the names to the affiliate. Taylor said Wednesday that a firearm was involved in the incident, but would not say whether a gun was recovered or what kind, citing the investigation.Taylor said that he met with Blake Bivens and his family, and called the tragedy"a horrible thing for this young man and his family to go through."
"I can't speak for him. I do know his family," Taylor said. I think that he has questions, just like we all do at this point — questions that we couldn’t answer last night. And hopefully as we get through this investigation we will be able to bring those, or to answer those questions.
