When Holland, 27, makes his initial appearance today in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court, he faces possible charges of murder and felonious assault.
Police did not reveal a motive for the shootings or whether any other suspects are wanted.
In the Rugby Road shooting, Shajuan E. Dorsey, 26, and a 20-year-old were wounded about 11:30 p.m. They initially were taken to Good Samaritan Hospital by two women who had been out with the men.
Dorsey and the other man were transferred to Miami Valley Hospital, where Dorsey was pronounced dead. The younger man was treated for a shoulder wound and released.
Dorsey’s sister, Nikita Phillips, said Tuesday that she and her brother had been separated for many years and reunited just before Christmas.
“We’d both been looking for each other for years and found each other on Facebook,” she said.
Phillips said her brother, a Patterson Career Academy grad, was attending Dayton Barber College.
In 2006, Holland pleaded no contest and was convicted of two counts of aggravated robbery with a firearm and sentenced to six years in prison. He was credited with 310 days served in jail while he was awaiting trial.
