Two Murder Suspects Arrested in Atlanta Will Return to Fort Wayne

ATLANTA (WOWO): Two Fort Wayne murder suspects will be returning to the Hoosier State to face their crimes.

24 year old Hozyfa Sultan and 18 year old Shakidi Underwood were arrested in Atlanta this week. On Wednesday, they appeared in court in Atlanta and waived their extradition hearings, meaning that they will be coming back to Fort Wayne to face a judge. 

The two are accused of murdering two people in two separate cases. 

Sultan is accused of shooting 20 year old Brandon Washington at a Plaza Drive home in October. Underwood is one of three suspects charged in the July 9th shooting death of 30 year old Melvin Palmer on Lillie Street during a weekend of violence.
