The Tallahassee Police Department announced Monday that it made a second arrest in connection to the fatal shooting incident that occurred at the outdoor basketball courts on Wahnish Way on Nov. 27.

Thomas fired multiple shots into a crowd on the basketball courts and fled the scene with Young in a vehicle, according to TPD.
