BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK\/KBFX) \u2014 After over a year, the teenager accused of shooting and killing a 15-year-old boy at The Marketplace<\/a> was arrested. This comes after the DA’s Office initially determined there was insufficient evidence and referred it back to the police.<\/p>\n

The Kern County District Attorney\u2019s Office said on November 17, 2025, DA\u2019s investigators and investigators with the Bakersfield Police Department executed a warrant and arrested Albert Briseno Jr. in connection with the murder of Prince Michael Banner.<\/p>\n
