TOLEDO, Ohio (TCD) -- A 15-year-old male has been arrested in connection with the shooting death of a teen girl who was found dead in an alley last week.
On Jan. 9, Toledo Police learned a 15-year-old girl had been shot and left in the alley near the 1300 block of Page Street. Four days later, on Jan. 13, Toledo Police announced they took a 15-year-old into custody on a murder charge.
Police identified the victim as DeAsia Green.
According to WTOL-TV, Green’s family reported her missing Jan. 5. She reportedly went to school that day but did not tell her mother her exact whereabouts.
The teen’s death comes 12 years after her father, DeAndre Green, was shot Oct. 17, 2010, as he left a bar. WTVG-TV reports several bullets struck DeAndre Green, and he died six days later.
No one has been arrested in connection with his death, and the case went cold.
DeAsia Green’s death comes about one month after two teenage boys, Ke’Marion Wilder, 16, and Kyshawn Pittman, 15, were found deceased in the rubble of a house fire in Toledo.
