WASHINGTON CITY, Utah — Police say Mia Bailey has surrendered and is in custody. Bailey is suspected in shooting and  killing two people. The double homicide took place on June 18.

Below is a video supplied by an anonymous source showing Mia Bailey surrendering to police. 

 

Lt. Kory Klotz with the Washington Police Department said officers responded to a home near 1000 E. Chinook Drive Tuesday evening after receiving reports of a shooting. Officers entered the front door and found a woman and man dead from apparent gunshot wounds.

Police initially identified the suspect as Collin Troy Bailey and said Bailey currently goes by the name Mia Bailey. Bailey was described as being 5-foot-10, weighing 130 pounds with brown hair and wearing blue skinny jeans with a light blue or white T-shirt. However, Klotz said Bailey wears wigs and is known to change hairstyles frequently.
