A Washington man is accused of killing his half-brothers inside a home before allegedly attacking a sheriff’s detective after being apprehended.

Seth South is charged with two counts of second-degree murder and one count of third-degree assault, according to aKitsap County Sheriff’s Office Facebook post.

A dispatcher reportedly told police that the phone went silent before fighting was heard, according to the documents.
