Officials identify suspect in slaying of D.C. family

Source: Chicago Tribune

Police identified a suspect late Wednesday in the mysterious slayings.

The man, who was still at large, was identified as 34-year-old Daron Dylon Wint. An arrest warrant has been issued for Wint on charges of first-degree murder, the Metropolitan Police Department said in a news release.

Maryland court records indicate that a Daron Wint, who is the same age as the suspect, was convicted in 2009 of second-degree assault and sentenced to 30 days in jail. A Darin Dylon Wint was charged with burglary in 2010 and pleaded guilty to malicious destruction of property, and a protective order also was taken out against him that year, the records show.

D.C. police said late Wednesday that they have identified a suspect in the killings of Savvas Savopoulos, his wife, young son and housekeeper, who authorities believe were held captive in the family’s Northwest Washington home.

Police said they had obtained a warrant for the arrest of Daron Dylon Wint, who they said is 34 and is from Maryland. They said they do not know his whereabouts.

The stunning break in the case came after police matched Wint to DNA found on the crust of a Domino’s pizza that had been ordered to the house the night of May 13, as the victims were being held, according to three law enforcement officials with knowledge of the investigation
