Police arrest second teenager in connection with deadly shooting in Colombia

HOWARD COUNTY, Md. – Howard County police announced Thursday that a second teenager has been arrested in connection with the murder of 26-year-old Kendrick McLellan.

Police say a 14-year-old was arrested at his high school in Anne Arundel County.

On Tuesday, a 17-year-old was taken into custody at Howard High School and found with a loaded handgun in his backpack.

This all stems from the discovery of McLellan’s body in a car on October 12th.

At about 2:14 a.m., police were conducting an area check in the 8800 block of Center Park Drive when they found him with multiple gunshot wounds in a vehicle parked behind an office building.

Investigators determined the shooting occurred around 5 p.m. on Oct. 9 at the same location where McLellan was discovered.

According to police, the victim and the two suspects were known to each other. A motive is still being investigated.

Although the 17-year-old was under the supervision of the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services and attached to an ankle monitor in a previous incident, this was not the case for the 14-year-old.

Both suspects are being held without bail and will be charged as adults.
