Police have made an arrest in the case of an expectant couple who were found dead in a car on Thanksgiving Day.

Savannah Fulmer, 18, was pregnant when she was discovered killed in a family vehicle parked in a McDonough, Georgia, cul de sac on Nov. 28. She and her boyfriend, Dahmir Robinson, 19, were both shot to death in what authorities now believe was a drug-related robbery.

On Friday, McDonough Police arrested 17-year-old Aljahon Joyner in connection with the deaths of Fulmer and Robinson. He is being charged with two counts of murder, one count of feticide and two counts of aggravated assault, according to an official press release.

Joyner is also facing weapons charges, including the possession of a firearm by a person under 21, armed robbery and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime.

Joyner is currently being held by the Henry County Sheriff’s Office. A lawyer for Joyner could not be immediately identified and it was not immediately clear if he has entered a plea.

The Augusta Chronicle reports Joyner is being charged as an adult.

On Thanksgiving Day, police were called to investigate a suspicious parked car, where they found the two victims dead upon arrival.

Fulmer was a senior at the local Eagle’s Landing High School, where she played softball, and Robinson was a 2019 graduate of Woodland High School in a neighboring town.

Honoring their late teammate, the Gamers Fast-pitch squad shared photos on Facebook over the weekend, framing her No. 22 uniform and offering condolences to her family.
