Cincinnati police have named a second suspect in a weekend double homicide in Walnut Hills.

Gerald Wilson, 24, is wanted for the homicides of Mark Davenport and Kenneth Gaines.

Officials describe Wilson as an African American man, 5'7'' tall, weighing about 150 pounds. Wilson, a Westwood resident, should be considered armed and dangerous, police say.

Police say Gaines, 48 and Davenport, 51, were shot in the 1200 block of Lincoln Avenue near East Martin Luther King Drive just before 11 p.m. Friday night. Both men were transported to the hospital where they were pronounced dead.

A third victim, a juvenile, was also treated for a non-life threatening gunshot wound. The juvenile's name has not been released.

On Sunday, homicide detectives signed a murder warrant for the arrest of Christopher Shaun Alexander for the homicides. Alexander was arrested around 11 a.m. on Monday when he turned himself into authorities in Carthage.

If you have any information about this crime, please call Crime Stoppers at (513) 352-3040 or text (513) 352-3050. You don't have to give your name and you may be eligible for a reward if your tips lead to an arrest.
