Two more arrested in connection to Valley Station shooting that left 17-year-old dead

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Two more arrests have been made in connection to a Valley Station shooting that left a 17-year-old dead.

18-year-old Muhamud Hassan and an unnamed 17-year-old juvenile suspect have both been charged with one count of murder (complicity) in connection to the shooting death of Laith Rajha.

Rajha died in the hospital two days after being shot in the head in the 13000 block of Bold Forbes Boulevard on May 6.

Shortly after the shooting, Louisville police announced the arrest of Jamal Sheikh, 18, who was originally charged with assault and tampering with physical evidence before the charges were upgraded to murder (complicity).

Arrest documents for Hussan say police believe he was the one who fired the shots that night.

Hassan is expected in court May 19 for arraignment.
