A second teen suspect in a fatal marijuana store robbery in Tacoma is now under arrest.

An employee at World of Weed, 29-year-old Jordan Brown, was shot to death one month ago.

Tacoma police say 16-year-old Montrell Hatfield was arrested in Kent Tuesday.

His suspected accomplice, 15-year-old Marshon Jones, was arrested in Kent last week.

Police tell KIRO Newsradio the boys are suspects in numerous other violent robberies in King and Pierce Counties.
