A second suspect in the fatal shooting of 32-year-old Tyrone Wright has been arrested.

At approximately 6:43 p.m. on Jan. 19, 2021, officers responded to the 3800 block of Hayes Street, NE for the sounds of gunshots, according to a press release. There, they found two men suffering from gunshot wounds. Wright was pronounced dead on the scene. The other victim was taken to the hospital for treatment of his non-life-threatening injuries.

On Feb. 24, police arrested 24-year-old Alexandria resident Ronnie Wallace. This comes nearly a year after 29-year-old Deangelo Glover was arrested in connection with the homicide. Both face charges of first-degree murder while armed.
