LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — Louisville police have arrested a second person in connection to an August shooting near a Louisville high school.

Police arrested Troy Martin Jr., 20, of Louisville, charging him with five counts of wanton endangerment, one count of assault and one count of unlawful transaction with a minor, Louisville Metro Police spokesperson Aaron Ellis said.

The shooting happened Tues., Aug. 26 around 8:10 p.m. in the 1500 block of Congress Street, not far from the Central High School Stadium. The shooting prompted a shelter-in-place at the stadium during a high school soccer game.

Officers found a man in his 20s with a gunshot wound to the knee. He was taken to the hospital, and two juveniles running from the scene were detained by police but not initially arrested.

Sept. 2, a 17-year-old boy was arrested and charged with assault and five counts of wanton endangerment.
