GREENSBORO, N.C. — Greensboro police said a 17-year-old has been arrested in the deadly shooting after a Dudley High School football game.
Police said the teen is charged with first-degree murder. Investigators have not identified the teen.
On Thursday, investigators said two suspects had been identified but were not yet in custody. Police said the 17-year-old was arrested later that day, shortly before 6 p.m. There's no update on the second suspect who officers said is 18 years old.
The shooting happened at the end of a game on Sept. 29.
Matthew Grant, 59, was killed in the shooting.
A second male victim was treated for non-life-threatening injuries and released from the hospital.
In addition to the two victims, two pedestrians were hit by the suspect car. Both were treated for minor injuries.
Family members said Grant was a minister at New Light Missionary Baptist Church and loved to go to Dudley games.
His cousin and fellow minister at New Light, Reverend Tracy Moore, said he loved the community he served.
"He would go to any game; basketball, baseball. He was not actually refereeing on that Friday night but he was just there attending the festivities with the rest of the community. But yeah, he loved Dudley, he loved A&T, he just loved coaching and too. At the church, we are revamping our youth ministry, so knowing Matthew, he was out there, trying to recruit some young men and women to come over to New Light for services," Moore said.
In a meeting with city council members on Thursday, Chief Thompson said there were officers at Dudley High School on the night of the shooting. They had their blue lights flashing as people left the stadium and the chaotic scene was still able to unfold.
Chief Thompson said he did not have the answer as to how to prevent incidents like this from happening, even with police present.
"I don't know where we've got to a point in our community and our society where people think the answer to a problem or resolution to a conflict is to pick up a gun and shoot somebody," Chief Thompson said.
This investigation is ongoing as officers continue to search for the second suspect.
