Second Suspect Arrested in Texarkana Shooting

This was an incident that occurred during the early morning hours of New Year's Eve. Teen arrested in connection With fatal Texarkana shooting after alleged car break-In | News | KTBS

Police have arrested a 16-year-old boy in connection with a fatal shooting that followed an alleged vehicle break-in last week in Texarkana. Authorities said Friday the teen was the second suspect involved in the incident, which occurred early Wednesday morning on North Park Road. The other suspect, a 15-year-old, was shot by a homeowner and later died at a local hospital. Police have not released the names of the juveniles.

As stated at the time of the incident, the investigation is going to take some time.

The police/DA have not said what, if any charges will apply. I'm no lawyer, but the internet (including the Wiki - always a questionable source) assures me that the Felony Murder Rule applies in Texas. No one knows if will apply in this case, because as far as I can tell the DA has not listed charges, or it may be that they won't publish the charges due to the age of the suspect.

Self-defense is a human right.
