A New Jersey mother and her 9-year-old daughter were found axed to death Wednesday in their Roselle home, and a jealous relative may be to blame, according to reports.

Keisha Morrison, 45, and Kelsey Morrison were wrapped in sheets and stuffed under a bed, according to police.

Keisha's husband and the girl's father, Gary Morrison, rushed to the Roselle home to check on them and made the devastating discovery, his sister Atasha Scott told NBC New York.

Gary's brother, who had been living in the basement, allegedly fled the home in Keisha's brand new BMW, which authorities tracked to Maryland.

Everoy J. Morrison, 44, of Roselle, has been identified by Maryland State Police as a person of interest in the homicide case, according to a press release. Scott told ABC7 NY that Everoy is Keisha's husband's half brother, who had been living in the basement of the home.

He was taken into custody Wednesday when Maryland State Police stopped a 2019 silver BMW 750 with a New Jersey registration that had been reported stolen, a release states. Police said Everoy was taken into custody on charges related to the stolen car, and was being held in the Baltimore County Detention Center awaiting extradition to New Jersey.

Atasha said she knew there was some tension in the home but never imagined it would come to this.

“They just weren’t comfortable with him being there anymore,” she added.

He had been living in the basement of the home for more than two years, but was recently told to move out. The family has declined to state the reason behind that decision, for now, though he hadn't moved out yet and was home when his brother got back on Wednesday.
