DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Des Moines police on Thursday charged another person with murder in the Sept. 2 shooting death of a man near the Drake University campus.
Police charged Luis Anibal Alicea-Rodriguez, 27, of West Des Moines, with first-degree murder and being a felon in possession of a firearm in connection with the death of Sean Newman, 36, of Des Moines.
Police also have charged Whitney Ann Davis, 33, of Des Moines, with first-degree murder in Newman’s death.
On Tuesday, police said inconsistencies in statements provided by a witness led them to drop charges against another man who they had charged with murder.
Newman was found shot to death in a neighborhood just east of the Drake campus.
