Teen murder suspect had deadly screen name, police say

Two Virginia Tech college students charged in girl's death

BALTIMORE -- Police believe they now know how Maryland man and Virginia Tech student David Eisenhauer first made contact with teen girl Nicole Lovell whom they say he kidnapped and killed, reports CBS Baltimore.

According to the station, a search warrant obtained by the Roanoke Times shows that Eisenhauer, 18, used the screen name "Dr_Tombstone" on the social messaging app Kik. He has been charged in the kidnapping and death of a teenage girl.

Investigators believe that 13-year-old Nicole Lovell had only begun communicating with "Dr_Tombstone" a few days before her death, reports the station.

The paper explains that the Kik account is registered to "David A." and was linked to a Gmail account that has been connected to Eisenhauer.

Eisenhauer has been charged with kidnapping and killing Lovell. Natalie Keepers, who is also from Maryland, faces charges in connection with her death.

Their next court date is March 28.
