«Breaking News» Michigan man charged with murder of 20-year-old who was shot with crossbow and found dead by twin

Authorities have identified a suspect in the death of a 20-year-old man who was shot by a crossbow outside his Michigan home.

The body of Marcus Olmstead was discovered by his twin brother Maxwell in the family's driveway in Norton Shores on Wednesday evening. 

The victim's death was ruled a homicide by the medical examiner after an autopsy was completed on Thursday morning. 

Detectives identified and arrested a suspect in nearby Grand Rapids hours later. 

'It was learned that the suspect a 20-year-old male from Grant MI, discharged a crossbow at the victim striking him in the torso and killing him in his driveway,' Norton Shores police said in a press release.  

'The suspect knew of the victim and this was not a random act. The suspect was lodged at the Muskegon County Jail on a charge of OPEN MURDER. The suspect will be identified after arraignment in 60th District Court.'

A 20-year-old male suspect, whose name has not yet been released, was arrested and charged with Marcus's murder on Thursday

 The victim's stepmother Michelle Olmstead said Marcus had gone outside to wait for a female friend at around 8.30pm Wednesday. About an hour later his brother Maxwell returned home from work and found Marcus lying in the driveway (above) with an arrow in his torso

Michelle (above) told WoodTV the family has been left wondering who would have wanted to kill Marcus and why they used a crossbow. She said police seized Marcus's cellphone, adding: 'He was on that phone all the time and obviously was involved with some nasty people' 

In the hours leading up to his death, Marcus had been playing fantasy board games at a friend's house, his stepmother Michelle Olmstead told WoodTV. 

'They do the gaming a lot,' she said. 'They have friends come over and family. It's a wholesome thing.'

The stepmother, who described Marcus as 'child-like', said that after he got home he was texting with a girl and then went outside around 8.30pm to wait for her. 

An hour later, Maxwell returned home from work and found his twin 'lying there in the driveway', Michelle said.   

'He goes over there, starts shaking him, rolls him over and that's when he realizes there's an arrow sticking out of his abdomen, like something you'd see in a movie or on CSI or something,' she continued. 

Michelle, a registered nurse, attempted to revive Marcus with CPR but said: 'He was already passed. He was cold.'

The day after Marcus's death, his twin shared a photo of the two of them on Facebook with the caption: 'I will always love you my brother.'

'Max had the strongest bond to Marcus than anybody,' the twins' stepmother said. 

'He's devastated. He's very angry. He's a 20-year-old young man. He's got a flow of emotions. He lost half of himself — his twin.' 

Loved ones have been left wondering who would have wanted to kill Marcus and why they used a crossbow to commit the alleged murder. 

'Maybe because it was quiet, and so we wouldn't hear a gunshot,' Michelle speculated. 'I don't know.' 

She said police seized Marcus's cellphone, adding: 'He was on that phone all the time and obviously was involved with some nasty people.'

Investigators have not released any information regarding the suspect's relationship to Marcus or what his motive may have been. 

Marcus, who was working at a Menard's home improvement center at the time of his death, was described by his stepmother as 'a very outgoing person' and 'a gentle soul'.

'He did have some emotional problems, but deep down, he was a kind soul,' she told WoodTV. 

The 2017 graduate of Mona Shores High School toured Europe with the school choir during his senior year. 'That was probably the proudest moment in his life,' Michelle said. 

Anyone with information or surveillance video in the area is asked to call the Norton Shores Police Department at 231.733.2691 or Silent Observer at 231.72.CRIME.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
