Williams lived in the 800 block of Keeven Lane in Florissant, and Jones lived in the 4000 block of Fox Island Drive in unincorporated north St. Louis County. Antaveon Bernard Le'Vell Kent, 21, was arrested and appeared in U.S. District Court in St. Louis via Zoom for a detention hearing. Prosecutors are seeking to have him held in jail until trial.
