STATESBORO, Ga. () — A 14-year-old has been arrested and charged with murder and aggravated assault after a shooting in Statesboro, police said on Wednesday.

Following 24 hours of investigation and a search warrant, a juvenile has been arrested and charged by Statesboro Police Department (SPD), an official said. The charges stem from a Tuesday night shooting at the Pinewood Manor apartments.

One of the 16-year-olds was taken to a Savannah hospital where he is in stable condition and the other has been treated and released.

The shooting was the end result of a physical altercation.
