Police have arrested a suspect who was with a 13-year-old Ohio boy shortly before the teen was fatally shot by a policeman investigating a reported armed robbery.
Nineteen-year-old Demetrius Braxton had told The Columbus Dispatch he was with Tyre King on Wednesday night and Tyre had sought to rob someone.
Columbus police say Braxton was arrested on a robbery charge Saturday afternoon. It’s not clear whether he has an attorney.
The case began when witnesses reported people had robbed a man of $10 at gunpoint Wednesday.
