Arrests are made in the murder of a father killed in crossfire on a Harrisburg street. 5 men are charged in connection to the shooting including a bar worker who, we're told, denied seeing anything.
Police charged two of the men with homicide, Michael Brown of Harrisburg and Daniel Johnson of Philadelphia. 2 others were arrested on related gun charges, they are Ricardo Antequera and Santos Guitierrez. Another man, Kendric Lewis, is charged with hindering apprehension and lying to police.
We're told he was working the door of the Jazz Land Nightclub and hid the outdoor surveillance video so police couldn't look at it. "From what I understand, his lawyer made him turn it in and it showed him outside when the actual shooting took place," Young's mother, Venesta Miller told us.
Mylik Young's 4 children are all under 4 years old, his fiance, Dolores Heyward, says those kids defined him. "They still talk about their dad. They ask me if I can go get him. It's hard to tell them that I can't get him," she said.
The shooting reportedly stemmed from a fight that started inside the club before it spilled outside. Young was in a parked car when he was hit by a bullet from an assault rifle.
Chief Charles Kellar says the arrests were thanks to good police work by the lead detective. "There wasn't a lot to go on because no one was talking about it. We know that the victim was a true victim he was not involved," Kellar said.
