Second arrest made in May slaying in Dorchester

July 23, 2009 07:42 PM

A second man has been arrested and charged with the May 13 shooting death of Dorchester resident Fred Bing, Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley said.

On Tuesday, authorities in New Jersey arrested Aboina Justice Sharpe, 20, of Revere, in South Brunswick, eight days after a grand jury indicted him for first-degree murder, Conley said.

On July 9, police arrested 16-year-old Damante Burrell, of Dorchester, and charged him with Bing's death after he was placed at the scene by a GPS monitoring device he was wearing at the time in connection with a separate juvenile case.

Sharpe is expected to appear in New Jersey court next week where he will either fight or waive rendition proceedings, Conley said.
