Two suspects have been arrested in connection with the shooting death of a toddler in Maryland, authorities said Friday.
Israel Fuentes Jr., 33, and 28-year-old Johnny Alejandro Turcios, both of Lewisdale, were identified as suspects in the murder of 2-year-old Jeremy Poou-Caceres in Langley Park with the help of the community, Prince George's County Assistant Police Chief Vernon Hale told reporters.
"The community stepped up like no other," Hale said. "They were cooperative, helped our detectives develop information and evidence to get some arrests in this case."
The shooting happened at around 5:35 p.m. Thursday near the Bedford Station Apartments in Langley Park. Investigators believe Fuentes and Turcios were with at least two other individuals in a carjacked gold SUV when they exited the vehicle and allegedly opened fire on another group.
