Three juveniles, aged 12, 16, and 17, have been arrested as suspects in the murders of three other teens.
At an April 7 press conference, Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods said his department had received a phone call from the Forest Lakes Park area on Thursday, March 30. When deputies arrived, they found 16-year-old Layla Silvernail laying on the side of the road. She had been shot. She was transferred to a local hospital where she later died of her injuries.
