HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- A man is charged with capital murder in the
deadly shooting of 7-year-old Jazmine Barnes, and a second suspect has
been taken into custody.

Investigators say a tip led to the arrest of Eric Black Jr., 20.

An investigation revealed evidence that corroborated the tip, authorities
say, and Black was taken into custody in east Harris County without
incident.

Black reportedly admitted to taking part in the shooting.

Sources tell ABC13 Larry Woodruffe, 24, has been arrested as a second
suspect in the case. Those sources say Woodruffe is believed to be the
shooter.

Jazmine's mother was driving Jazmine and her three sisters southbound on
the East Sam Houston Parkway feeder road near Wallisville Road at
approximately 6:50 a.m. on Sunday when they were fired upon by someone in another vehicle.

At this time, investigators do not believe Jazmine's family was the
intended target of the shooting, and that they were possibly shot as a
result of mistaken identity.

"I am grateful to our dedicated investigators, the partner law enforcement agencies that provided vital assistance, and tipsters from across the
nation who pulled together to support our work to get justice for
Jazmine," Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said. "Our work is not finished, but I
believe the people of Harris County can take comfort in knowing we have
made great progress."

LaPorsha Washington, Jazmine's mother, was injured during the shooting.

When the shooting was over, one of her other daughters made the
devastating discovery.

"She said, 'Momma, Jazmine's not moving. She's not talking.' I turned
around and my 7-year-old was shot in the head," Washington said.

The story has captured the attention of community members, celebrities and activists around the world.
