Riches and police just nabbed a third suspect in that chaotic Waffle House parking lot shooting from March 19th that left the high school kid, paralyzed from the waist down. The latest arrest is a juvenile, charged with deadly conduct for firing a weapon, but cops aren't releasing the name since they're underage. This comes after they already locked up an 18-year-old Taylor Griffin and a 17-year-old Charles Webster on organized crime charges. Those two admitted to throwing punches before the guns came out during a massive brawl involving 50 to 100 teens from Richardson and Anna. School districts, plus maybe others, it all started as an argument over a girl and turned into multiple shots fired in the Spring Valley road spot. The victim, Seth Jackson from Richardson High, was a basketball player with two jobs and a full ride waiting at the University of Houston. Now his dad scrambling to make their home wheelchair friendly, widening doors and remodeling the bathroom life flipped upside down in seconds.

Cops drop surveillance picks of mass persons of interest, some packing weapons, but tracking them down is tough with witnesses dodging questions, and folks bolting from the scene. The main shooter is still out there and no one planned to pull triggers that night. Police are pushing hard for tips, call them at 972-744-4893 or hit crime stoppers for up to $5,000 if it leads to an arrest. Griffin and Webster are sitting on $50,000 bonds and they're determined to wrap this up for real accountability. That wraps Dallas News Today, brought to you with AI. I'm Cory with the story.
