2 Men Arrested In Weekend Murder In Worcester
WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) -- Police have charged two people in connection with a weekend shooting in Worcester that left one man dead.
Police say 24-year-old Juan Gutierrez and 21-year-old Kenneth Vazquez face murder and other charges in connection with the shooting Saturday evening that left 37-year-old Juan Mendez dead.
Officers responded to the Lincoln Village Apartments on Country Club Boulevard for a report of an assault with a dangerous weapon.
Police found the victim on the ground suffering from a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital where he died.
