Man charged in Tina Arroyo's murder, Philadelphia police say
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Philadelphia police have arrested and charged a man accused of fatally shooting Tina Arroyo on Monday.
The mother of two was shot just steps away from a Boys and Girls Club in Feltonville. Her loved ones are trying to make sense of what happened just a matter of days ago.
The suspect was identified as 26-year-old Alexander Grady. He has been charged with murder, criminal conspiracy, not having a license to carry a firearm, carrying a firearm on the streets, possessing an instrument of crime, and recklessly endangering another person.
Police say Grady pulled up in a white SUV and fired at least 28 times, hitting Arroyo's Honda Civic just before 6 p.m. Monday.
Philadelphia police are still trying to piece together a motive. They believe it does not appear to be random.
So far this year in the city, The Office of the Controller reports 13.8% of shooting victims are women, which is up from last year's figure of 13.3%, and nearly double compared to 2016 (7.1%).
