Police arrested an 18-year-old Monday in connection with a shooting that left one person dead and four others injured in Bridgeport last week.
Roderick Rodgers was arrested around noon, according to police.
Rodgers is accused of shooting Christopher Pettway and killing him last Tuesday afternoon along Reservoir Avenue. Four other people were injured in the shooting. The other victims, who range in age from 15 to 19, are expected to recover.
