(WSB Radio) Could the murder of an Atlanta teenager be linked to a double murder from last month?

Atlanta homicide detectives are exploring the possibility that the killing of 17 year old Devonte Jones might be connected to the murders of two men in a city park in September.

Three men broke into Jones' home late Monday night, chased the teen into his bedroom, then gunned him down.  The gunmen also tried to shoot the boy's mother, but the gun jammed.

Detectives say the boyfriend of the mother was among the two men who were found shot to death last month at Anderson Park, in the city's Dixie Hills area. 

A spokesman for the Atlanta city schools says Jones' was frightened after those killings.  He told his teachers at Carver High School he was scared, but did not elaborate.
