Indiana Borough Police announced late Monday that a second suspect in the fatal shooting of 20-year-old Jadeyn Wright is now in custody.
Police identified the two unknown suspects as 21-year-old Delmar L. Chatman and 18-year-old Terrion J. Gates, both of Johnstown. Both were charged by police with criminal homicide and robbery, with Chatman facing charges of conspiracy to both robbery and theft, while Gates was charged with theft by unlawful taking. Indiana Borough Police Chief Justin Schawl said that Chatman was taken into custody without incident Sunday night and is currently in Indiana County Jail with no bail set due to the charge of criminal homicide. Gates remains at large and a warrant is out for his arrest.

Police have been investigating the case since about 4:00 AM on Saturday, when the initial call went out for a shooting in the 1300 block of Oakland Avenue. Investigators found Wright on the ground with a gunshot wound in his upper body, and he was pronounced dead at IRMC later Saturday morning. Police believe that Moore, Gates, Chatman and 17-year-old Isabella M. Edmonds of Indiana, conspired to acquire a large amount of marijuana from Wright, with the encounter leading to his death.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Moore or Chatman is encouraged to call Indiana Borough Police anytime at 724-349-2121.
