Brentwood resident Louis Gregory, 39, has been arrested and charged for his alleged role in the shooting that left 22-year-old Freiyer Yanez-Salas dead and two others injured.

At around 7:30 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 23, Mount Rainier police officers responded to the area of Chuck's Liquors in the 3400 block of Rhode Island Avenue to probe a reported shooting with three victims.

According to witnesses, an unknown man - later identified as Gregory - got into a verbal confrontation with a driver parked in front of the liquor store, which rapidly escalated, resulting in three of six passengers inside the vehicle being struck by a hail of bullets.

Yanez-Salas was pronounced dead at the scene by first responders. Two others suffered critical, life-threatening injuries.

Gregory was charged with first- and second-degree murder, as well as other related offenses in connection to the fatal shooting.

He's being held without bond in the custody of the Department of Corrections.
