HUNTSVILLE – A teen-ager has been arrested in last month’s deadly shooting on Meridian Street, according to the Huntsville Police Department.
Seven Nelson, 19, is charged with reckless murder in the shooting at a convenience store Oct. 12 that left two men dead.
The shooting happened around 9:45 p.m. and, when officers responded to the Chevron gas station at 3310 Meridian Street, they found 22-year-old Damien Obrien Manning with a gunshot wound and Davante Centrell Dixon, 24, critically wounded.
Manning was pronounced dead at the scene; Dixon died Nov. 10 from his wounds.
