However, Isaih Perez, the missing child in the case, still has not been found. Deputy Chief Daniel Parillo said a description of the two-year-old was not yet available.
Parillo also stated that witnesses saw Crowell fleeing the scene in Rhode Island with Perez. Authorities issued an Amber Alert for Perez on Sunday morning.
Most of the other information about the homicide won't be released until Perez is found. However, police still don't know Crowell's relation to Perez and both of the murder victims. Perez lived in the home where the double homicide happened.

Investigators believe that the murders occurred between 4:30 and 5 a.m. Crowell was then captured several hours later at his place of employment, according to Fox News, and is currently in custody now.
"Hopefully we can answer a lot more questions once we get Mr. Crowell here," Parillo said. "We are starting to talk to family members right now to determine what the relationship with the boy is, but we have not pinpointed that. What he was doing there, we have no idea."
