Houston crime: Fourth arrest in Willow Green apartment shooting
What we know:
On Wednesday, Houston police announced the arrest of 19-year-old J'lon Griffin. Officials say he has been charged with capital murder in the death of 18-year-old Miguel "Mickey" Gonzelez Jr.
Three other suspects have been arrested and are facing the same charge in this case: 20-year-old Andres Garcia, 17-year-old Joshua Richards, and a 16-year-old juvenile suspect.
The backstory:
The shooting happened on March 1 at the Willow Green apartment on Willow Place Drive.
When they arrived, Gonzalez was found dead in the courtyard.
Investigators also learned two other men were taken to area hospitals with gunshot wounds by private vehicle. They were reported to be in stable condition. One of those men was identified as Garcia.
Police believe Gonzalez was lured to the apartment complex under the impression he was buying items from the suspects.
When he arrived at the complex, Gonzalez was robbed at gunpoint by the suspects, according to police.
