DALLAS — Two people were found fatally shot inside a vehicle in West Dallas on Tuesday night, police said.

Officers responded around 7:35 p.m. to a shooting call in the 3000 block of Bickers Street, near Kingsbridge Park, according to a police news release. When they arrived, they found two male victims shot inside a car. 

The two victims died at the scene. Footage from the scene showed the car in a parking lot with damage to the front of it and the windshield.

Police said investigators learned that the victims were meeting with the suspect, who was later found getting treatment at a hospital.

Police on Friday identified the suspect as 18-year-old Ethyn Leang. Police said Leang faces a charge of capital murder. More than a month later police announced a second arrest of 20-year-old Francisco Herrera. He is also charged with capital murder, DPD said.

The victims' names have not been released yet.

More information about how the shooting happened was not released. Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact police detective Frank Serra at 214-662-4552 or at frank.serra@dallaspolice.gov.
