PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- A second suspect was in custody Saturday night in the September slayings of three people at a Philadelphia grocery store, police said.
The day after the first suspect, Ibrahim Muhammed, 31, was arrested, city police said Saturday they also had apprehended Nalik Shariff Scott, 27, Philadelphia's WCAU-TV reported.
The two Philadelphia men also are suspected in two other robberies, the TV station said.
Police allege Scott and Mohammed were involved in the Sept. 6 robbery at Lorena's Grocery during which owner Porfirio Nunez, who turned 50 that day, his wife Carmen, 49, and her sister, Lina Sanchez, 42, were shot to death.
Nunez's two teenage daughters ducked behind a counter and were not injured, The Philadelphia Inquirer said.
