According to charging documents, Jeanna called 911 from the home and could be heard asking a male she repeatedly called "Tony" not to shoot her.
Tony, later identified as Reyes, was heard talking to a man named "Charlie," leading to an argument over money. Gunshots rang out moments later, with Jeanna calling out to "Charlie" and again pleading not to be shot.
More shots were fired, followed by complete silence.
A witness reported that Reyes called them and confessed to shooting Charlie and "Jeanie." He also said he planned to go to Maryland Live! Casino and Hotel.
Police received a vehicle description from the witness and found Reyes near the intersection of Ridge Road and Severn Road in Hanover. Officers arrested him after a brief car chase at the intersection of Quarterfield Road and George Clauss Boulevard.
Reyes is charged with first- and second-degree murder and other related charges.
According to court records, he was denied bond.
