Three more people have been charged in connection with a deadly shooting in Scranton’s west side last December.
Officers found 16-year-old Dylan Smith with a gunshot wound at a home along the 1300 block of Bryn Mawr Street on December 12. He later died at the hospital.
Investigators say the gun used in the shooting was reported stolen in Archbald two weeks prior.
In January, authorities charged James Barbarino, 19, of Dickson City, with receiving stolen property, sales of firearms, theft by unlawful taking, and other offenses.
