LINCOLN, Neb. (KMTV) — A man that was being held and charged with two murders has died in what appears to be a suicide.

Brindar Janjir, 36, was found unresponsive in his cell in the early morning hours Sunday at the Lincoln Correctional Center.

A first-degree murder warrant was issued for Jangir back in March for the murders of Randal and Annette Grimes of Douglas, Nebraska.

Jangir was being held at the Lincoln facility since early May, as his death is under investigation.
