A male who, police said, was 17 when the incident occurred.
It was a crime that was remarkable for the way Earley was targeted and for the brutality. All caught on home security video.
Two men were in a car that pulled around a corner, and one gets out and surprises Earley as he walks down a sidewalk.
There’s a struggle over a gun, and Earley gets shot and then the shooter demands the passcode for his phone.
He was shot three times, including in the head. He lost some cognitive ability and part of a leg.
