Police: Man Arrested in Fatal Shooting of Omaha Teen

Jail-Bars-and-Cuffs_mediumOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A 26-year-old man has been arrested in connection to an August shooting that left an Omaha teenager dead.

A news release from the Omaha Police Department said that the suspect was arrested Monday on suspicion of first-degree murder, use of a weapon to commit a felony and use of a weapon by a prohibited person.

Police found 19-year-old Garion Johnson with multiple gunshot wounds in north Omaha on August 8. He was taken to a hospital, where he later died.

Another 26-year-old man was arrested earlier this month on suspicion of first-degree murder and use of a weapon to commit a felony in connection to the case.
