Bridgeport police have made a second arrest in the murder of Ryan Hernandez, 21, in August.
Hernandez was shot in the chest during a confrontation at Park Avenue and Olive Street on Aug. 10, according to police.
School Resource Officer took a 17-year-old suspect into custody at Lakeview Cemetery on Wednesday, police said. Police believe he is the shooter and the teen has been charged with murder, as well as other charges, police said.
On August 11, police released video from the scene in the hopes that it would lead to clues in the case.
It shows one male approached Hernandez with what appears to be a gun and the two argue.
The suspect takes a swing at Hernandez with his weapon, then backs up as Hernandez walks toward him.
The men continue to argue and they go off-camera when the individual, identified as Hernandez, lunges after the suspect.
Then the video shows the suspect fleeing into a car that was stopped in the road and it drives away once the suspect is inside as a third man runs after the car.
Then, a man partially visible in the edge of the camera frame falls to the ground.
Hernandez was transported to St. Vincent's Medical Center in Bridgeport and later pronounced dead.
Last month, detectives charged a 16-year-old with conspiracy to commit murder. Police said he was the driving the car the suspected gunman was in.
Police have not released the names of the suspects.
