Police say they've arrested a Omaha man on accusations that he fatally shot a southeast Omaha man and his two sons.

Timothy J. Britt was arrested Wednesday and charged with three counts of first-degree murder and three related firearms charges.

He's accused of shooting 44-year-old Miguel Avalos, 18-year-old Miguel Avalos Jr. and his 16-year-old brother, Jose Avalos, on July 9.
