Authorities arrested a sixth person in connection with a fatal shooting that left a 15-year-old boy dead and several other injured at a Georgia homecoming afterparty.

Christopher Bell, 19, is the latest suspect to be charged with murder, violation of the Georgia Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act, aggravated battery, and four counts of aggravated assault, in connection with the shooting death of Bry'shun Jordan and the non-fatal shootings of four additional victims at a party in Elbert County, Georgia, on Oct. 12, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

Bell was arrested Thursday in Lithonia, Georgia, following the arrests of alleged co-conspirators Jarquavious Scott, 18; Destanne Mathis, 20; Aanidras Parks, 18; Jerimiyah Hughes, 19; and Desmond Latimer, 18, in October.

All six suspects face identical charges, according to the GBI.

It's unclear if any of them entered pleas.

Loved ones described Bry'shun as "deeply loved by his community and known as the 'gentle giant' to many of his teachers," according to a GoFundMe launched to help offset funeral costs. "His smile could light up any room."

A motive remains under investigation.
