A news release from the Wake County Sheriff’s Office did not describe Small’s relationship to the three alleged victims.

Small has been charged with three counts of murder.

He is being held in the Wake County Detention Center.

It’s unclear if he’s hired an attorney.

A 911 caller had asked police to check on the three victims on Monday after not hearing from them.
