Dariel,
known as DJ, and Mikayla Walker were each shot once in the head,
according to the Bay County Sheriff’s Office. The boy was found just
outside the car where the bodies of Mikayla and the children’s mother,
Nikita Landrum, 31, were discovered. Landrum also died from a fatal
gunshot wound to the head, investigators said.
The
car was found in a Bangor Township industrial park some 100 miles from
Farmington Hills, where the children were living with their mother. A
handgun was also located at the scene.
Nikita
Landrum and the children's father Dariel Walker were separated and
shared custody of their kids. A family friend told FOX2 in Detroit
that the children’s father never thought their lives would have been in
danger around his wife.
“It
was an absolute and total shock to the family. Those kids are little
angels and I say it all the time," the friend, Kamal Miller said. "It
was an absolute and total shock to the family."
“It was an absolute and total shock to the family.”
Police are still trying to determine a motive for the violence.
