A 19-year-old was charged with murder in the shooting death of a teenage boy in a typically quiet Manhattan neighborhood, according to police.

Henry Thomas was arrested by U.S. Marshals Friday afternoon in Harlem in connection with the deadly shooting of 16-year-old Mahki Brown on May 7 in SoHo, police said. Brown was killed in the outdoor Urban Plaza, a public courtyard space on private property between two buildings on Spring Street, when multiple people rode up on Citi bikes, police said. One of the individuals took out a gun, shooting Brown in the back of the head and twice in the leg, police said.It is believed some sort of dispute broke out between the two groups before the shots were fired.

Brown was rushed to the hospital, but died from his injuries. It was not immediately clear if he was the intended target. The suspects took off on the Citi bikes immediately after. A photo shared with NBC New York showed two people on a Citi bike — one pedaling and one seated in the bike's front basket — who were suspected to be involved in the shooting.It was not clear if Thomas was one of the individuals seen in the photo . Investigators are still looking for the other suspect.
