According to investigators, one juvenile male was injured in the shooting and has since been released from the hospital to continue his recovery.

Police said Willian Reyes-Ramos was arrested July 8 with assistance from the Prince George’s County Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division.

A second suspect, a juvenile male, was arrested July 10 and is being charged as an adult for his alleged role in the shooting. Police said his identity is not being released because of his age.

The juvenile suspect faces charges including attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault, use of a firearm in a felonious crime and additional firearms-related offenses.

The charges are allegations, and both defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.
