DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Des Moines police on Friday made a second arrest in the murder of a man who was shot to death in a neighborhood near Drake University.
Police charged Michael Jermaine Jacobs, 27, of Des Moines with first-degree murder in the death of Sean Newman, 36, of Des Moines. Whitney Ann Davis, 33, of Des Moines was charged a day earlier with first-degree murder in the case.
Police said in a news release Friday that the evidence indicates that Jacobs was the person who shot and killed Newman.
Detectives are continuing the investigation, but no additional arrests are expected.
Officers were called to investigate a shooting Wednesday afternoon, just east of the Drake campus. They found Newman dead, apparently from a gunshot wound.
