NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Police in Tennessee have taken two people into custody for questioning in connection with two slayings outside a bar last week and a fatal shooting earlier.

Authorities believe the two in custody may have been involved in robbing and fatally shooting 30-year-old Jaime Sarrantonio, a native of Westbrook, Conn., and 33-year-old Bartley Teal in a parking lot early Friday morning.

The victims had recently left The Cobra bar in East Nashville. Two other people were with Sarrantonio and Teal at the time, but neither was shot.

Police say the crime might be linked to several other local shootings, including an Aug. 14 robbery that left 31-year-old Kendall Rice dead.
