Three juveniles, whose names have not been released, were arrested Wednesday at different locations in Newport and Covington, according to a press release from Covington Police Department.
All have been charged with complicity to murder in connection with a Jan. 23 Latonia homicide.
Although his name is not mentioned in the release, the description of the incident matches the one that led to the death of 14-year-old Amani Smith, who was killed while walking to a family member’s home in Latonia.
All three suspects are currently being held in juvenile detention. Another juvenile, aged 17, was arrested in connection to the murder on Jan. 24.
