Emmanuel Matt Uzowihe, 37, of Tifton, was taken into custody the morning of the attack in which two women were found wounded in a residence on 11th Street. One of the women later died from her injuries.

Monday evening, the Tifton Police Department released Uzowihe’s name and the list of charges he faces: felony murder, aggravated assault (three counts), possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of a knife during the commission of a crime and criminal attempt to commit rape.
