SAN ANTONIO — Four men have been arrested and formally charged in connection with a 2017 drive-by shooting that killed a local 4-year-old boy, according to the Bexar County district attorney's office.
In July of 2017, gunmen fired more than 60 shots into a New Braunfels home, killing De'Earlvion Whitley, officials say. This week, authorities arrested Terrell Chase, 27; Todd Hill, 32; Quentin Phillips, 28; and Dakota Peppers, 29.
On Tuesday, a Bexar County grand jury handed down indictments on the four suspects, charging three of them – Chase, Hill and Phillips – with murder, felon in possession of a firearm and deadly conduct. Peppers was indicted on a felon in possession of a firearm charge.
Authorities say the investigation has involved multiple law enforcement agencies in Texas, adding that more arrests are possible.
