Shortly after allegedly killing his pregnant girlfriend in Baldwyn, a Tupelo man on the run from police posted a video on social media saying he was responsible for the May 13 killing of a Tupelo cab driver. Lyndarius Witherspoon was shot and killed in a gun battle with Tupelo Officer Jason Whitenton in an apartment complex parking lot. He didn't mention the dead girlfriend, and it's uncertain whether he actually killed the cabby.
