ATLANTA (Reuters) - Police arrested one man and searched for a second suspect on Wednesday in the killing of a Mercer University basketball player who was gunned down in a convenience store parking lot in Macon, Georgia.
Jibri Bryan, 23, was shot in the head about 4 p.m. on Tuesday near a busy intersection, said Lieutenant Randy Gonzalez of the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office. He was found sitting in the driver's seat of a late-model Chevrolet.
Witnesses said two men drove up beside Bryan and got out of their car, police said. The shooter stood next to Bryan and the second man went to the other side of the car, where he was wounded in the line of fire after Bryan was shot in the head, according to police.
Police said Jarvis Clinton Miller, 24, the wounded suspect, ran from the scene but was found nearby. He was charged with felony murder on Wednesday, and witnesses told police he was also armed.
