MACON, Ga. — According to records from the Bibb County Sheriff's Office, a third man was arrested in connection with a 2022 murder on Friday.
Bibb County jail records show Lebron Jaquarius Colbert was arrested for Aggravated Assault, Murder, Possession of a Firearm or Knife During Commission of or Attempt to Commit Certain Felonies.
The sheriff's office confirmed to 13WMAZ that investigators made the arrest in connection to the murder of 17-year-old Tyreek Young.
Back in 2022, two other suspects were charged in Young's murder: a 16-year-old juvenile and 17-year-old Jaquavious Jamal Scott.
Young was shot in the 1100 block of Carlisle Avenue just before 9:30 p.m. on July 15, 2022.
He was transported to a local hospital, where he died from his injuries two days later, on July 17. An 18-year-old was also shot in the leg and was taken to the hospital in stable condition.
The pair of teens charged in Young's death were arrested in a separate case.
On Sept. 7, four people were arrested after a pursuit and foot chase in connection with a stolen car on Napier Avenue, including a 17-year-old, two 16-year-olds and a 13-year-old.
That's when deputies arrested Jaquavious Scott and the 16-year-old.
Colbert is being held at the Bibb County Jail.
