Fairfax County police arrested a suspect in the killing of a 14-year-old boy.
An 18-year-old man was charged with second-degree murder Thursday in the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old teenager following a fight a day earlier, police said.
“The life of a 14-year-old child was simply not lost the other day,” Police Chief Kevin Davis said. “It was taken by a gunman who intentionally shot and killed one of our children. And that’s something that has the attention of our entire community — and it should.”, they received a report of shots fired in the 13000 block of Coppermine Road, where three teenagers had been in a dispute.
Authorities gave few details regarding what events occurred before the shooting. The three people involved in the case were known to each other and had verbal disputes in the past, officials said, but authorities were still investigating their relationships. The defendant, who Davis said recently graduated from Mountain View High School, did not attend the same school as any of those in the dispute.“We are not characterizing this as a gang-related matter,” Davis said.
