Police Arrest Boy After Teen Girl’s Fatal Shooting

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Police have arrested a 13-year-old boy in connection with the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old girl in upstate New York.

Sgt. Matthew Malinowski says police took the boy into custody Tuesday and charged him with second-degree manslaughter and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon.

Authorities say Mya Killeen was shot Jan. 22 at an apartment in Syracuse.

Mya later died of her injuries at a hospital.

The boy has not been identified due to his age.

Malinowski says an investigation is ongoing.
