Texas authorities arrest two men in connection with fatal teen shooting
Authorities in Bexar County, Texas, have arrested two men in connection with the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Alianna Nicole Ujueta. The incident occurred nearly a year ago during a party in southwest Bexar County.
Angel Marchan, 19, and Michael Martinez, 23, face charges of tampering with physical evidence. Investigators allege that after the primary suspect, Deshawn Suggs, shot Ujueta, he handed the firearm to Marchan and Martinez to dispose of it. The two men are accused of selling the weapon while knowing it was critical evidence in a homicide. Suggs, who was identified as the shooter, was reportedly killed in a separate incident before he could be taken into custody.
