Two Kenyan-Americans are among five suspects charged in connection with the shooting of a 25-year-old father of three in Cobb County, Georgia two weeks ago.
18-year-old Maria Mungai of Acworth, GA and Charlton Kariuki of Smyrna, GA have been charged in the March 23rd shooting of Daniel Perez, 25, while he was seated in the passenger set of a pickup truck at the Shops at Blue Springs. Perez died four days later in the hospital.
According to the arrest warrants, Kariuki is accused of buying the murder weapon, a .38-caliber handgun and then selling it to the shooting suspect, a 15-year-old who was not named for being a juvenile. Kariuki also allegedly drove the other suspects to the scene of the crime.
Maria is charged with helping the suspects escape and hide after the shooting.
The suspects are being held without bail, according to Cobb county jail records.
