OMAHA, Neb. -- A double-murder suspect that was arrested in Des Moines, Iowa will soon be back in Nebraska. 

An Omaha man, 27-year-old Gage Walter, has been in Polk County, Iowa Jail since the middle of August. 

Our partners at WOWT Channel 6 News said he's accused of killing his great-grandmother, 93-year-old Marceline Teeters and his grandmother, 70-year-old Linda Walter, at their home in Omaha. 

Iowa investigators said that Walter had led officers on a chase in a stolen PT Cruiser, which had allegedly been taken from the Omaha murder scene. 

On Monday morning, an Iowa judge ordered Walter's case to be transferred to Douglas County to face the more serious charges. Our partners at WOWT said they learned the Omaha-Metro Fugitive Team is expected to pick up Walter on Tuesday. 

Walter has also been charged by Nebraska investigators with attempted murder for allegedly attacking a man with a hammer outside a supermarket at 29th and Leavenworth Streets the day before the homicides. 

It was reported that Walter's family has said he has a history of mental illness.
