Late Sunday, police announced they charged 18-year-old Jametrius Griffin
with murder, two counts each of first- and second-degree assault and tampering with physical evidence.
A teen, 16-year-old Di’Zhon Robertson, was killed in Saturday's shooting, which occurred at Charles Young Park just before 7 p.m. during the neighborhood’s East End Day celebration. Four others, including two minors, were wounded.
