HARTFORD CITY, Ind. (AP) _ A jury has found a Portland man guilty of two counts of murder in the shooting deaths of a man and his daughter earlier this year.
A Blackford Circuit Court jury convicted 60-year-old Charles Whittington of Portland in the Feb. 5 slayings of 40-year-old Shane Paul Williamson and his 14-year-old daughter, Katelin, at the Hartford City apartment building where the victims lived.
The Star Press reports (http://tspne.ws/1SdfTfN ) Whittington showed little reaction to the verdict. A survivor of Katelin Williamson began to cry.
A witness testified during the trial that Whittington was agitated by Shane Williamson's online contact with his former girlfriend.
It was not immediately clear when Whittington would be sentenced.
