Tuesday, January 20, 2026 - Twin brothers in Texas, US, have been arrested in connection with two November m8rders, including one that police say was revenge for a robbery that they were the victims of.
Samuel Gbadebo and Solomon Gbadebo, both 20, were arrested
last week and charged with m8rder after authorities say they carried out one of
the k!llings as revenge for a 2021 robbery, during which their victim forced
them to strip naked at gunpoint, FoxNews reported
on January 16, 2026.
The first k!lling took place at an apartment complex in
north Fort Worth on November 15, 2025.
Authorities said a white Nissan Altima was seen on security
footage driving into the complex’s parking lot around 1:30 a.m.
Soon after, Devan Randles, 19, was seen in the footage with
three other men. Authorities say they believe Randles and the other men were
breaking into cars in the complex at that time.
However, a shooting later unfolded, and Randles’ body was
found with gunshot wounds. Randles was later pronounced dead. Authorities did
not say what led to the shooting.
The Altima was caught on surveillance footage fleeing the
scene soon after the shooting, but no suspects were found after authorities
investigated.
Later that month, another man was k!lled in the early hours
of November 30 in the parking lot of Flips Patio Grill.
Isaiah Gonzales, 20, an employee of Flips, was seen leaving
the establishment with his girlfriend around 2 a.m.
The footage showed two other men, who had been loitering in
the parking lot, running up to Gonzales’s car and firing guns through the
windshield.
Gonzales was critically wounded in the shooting and later
pronounced dead at a hospital, according to the report.
In the immediate aftermath, authorities found shoe patterns
matching Nike Air Force 1s leaving the scene, but were unable to identify any
suspects.
Later investigations identified the twins as suspects in
both murders, according to the report.
Authorities determined that the Nissan Altima from the first
murder was connected to the second, and then traced it to the Gbadebos’ mother.
The twins were also later observed wearing clothes and shoes
that matched previous crime scene evidence.
Fort Worth police conducted a search of the twins’ apartment
on December 12, but no items were seized and not enough evidence was found to
connect the men to the k!llings.
However, that same day, Samuel Gbadebo was arrested after a
police chase in the Fort Worth area, but later bonded out because there was not
enough evidence connecting him to the m8rders.
Authorities’ investigation led to the brothers’ arrest last
week, according to the report.
The search warrant affidavit revealed some information about
how the twins were associated with one of their victims.
A tipster reportedly told police that Gonzales, the victim
in the second shooting, had robbed the brothers and held them at gunpoint years
earlier.
During the robbery, Gonzales forced the twins to strip naked
in front of the camera.
The tipster also told police they heard the twins were
responsible for Gonzales’ d3ath, the warrant said.
Investigators later found video evidence while searching
Gonzales’ belongings that showed two young Black men being held at gunpoint
while naked.
Authorities said they used facial recognition technology to
determine the two men were the Gbadebo twins.
