Fields and Bolanos' bodies were found tied with their throats cut in their apartment after police shot Teixeira at the door.

The suspect was sent to Tufts Medical Center.

Boston Police Commissioner Bill Evans first said that the suspect must have known the victims, but it was later learned that a year ago, Teixeira briefly worked at the building.

Palladion Services says that Teixeira worked at the property for three weeks.

Teixeira has been held without bail since the incident.
