22 year-old Dean Dawson Jr., a resident of Armadillo Street, is at prison tonight after he was taken to court for murder.
As we reported, 48 year-old Wallace Donald Matura was shot on February 15 in front of VIP Wireless, and succumbed a month and a half later.
Matura was trying to keep the peace when he intervened to stop an older male from harassing a young female child that he knew. The man later returned in the company of another male and they fired indiscriminately - seriously injuring Matura and grazing two passers-by.
He suffered eight gunshot injuries to left leg and in both arms, and succumbed after a five week battle.
It's been 2 weeks now, and police have finally charged Dean Dawson Jr. with his murder. Dawson was arraigned today by Chief Magistrate Anne Marie Smith, and he was remanded prison until June 11.
