NEW YORK CITY -- (WPIX) -- A 13th suspect has been arrested in the knife-and-machete death of Bronx teen Lesandro "Junior" Guzman-Feliz, police said Sunday.
Ronald Urena, 29, was charged with murder, manslaughter, gang assault, conspiracy and criminal possession of a weapon.
He was among a group of alleged gang members who, while out cruising for members of rival gangs, spotted 15-year-old Guzman-Feliz on June 20 and chased the teen.
Urena, who was arrested around 6 p.m., was not with the group when Guzman-Feliz was slain in a brutal attack that was a case of mistaken identity. The teen's shocking death sparked the "Justice for Junior" movement and has attracted international attention.
"I want to say thank you again," Leandra Feliz told PIX11 after she learned of the latest arrest in her son's slaying. "To get justice for my son, this is God working."
