RICHMOND, Va. -- A fifth person was arrested in connection to the April 27 shooting at the Belt Atlantic apartments that killed a mother and her infant girl, and injured three others.
Crime Insider sources confirmed 18-year-old Kevon Bynum was arrested Thursday on Richmond's Southside with the help of the U.S. Marshal Fugitive Task Force.
