BROCKTON, Mass. (AP) - The man authorities say fired the fatal shots in a drive-by shooting in Brockton has been arraigned on a murder charge.
Prosecutors say 22-year-old Christopher Nogueira, of Taunton, shot and killed 21-year-old Anthony Baker Jr. on Friday. They say Baker had been in a long-running feud with 21-year-old Andrew Tymek, who asked Nogueira to help him “end this all.”
Investigators say the men sought out Baker, and Nogueira shot him from a vehicle driven by Tymek.
