Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office detectives have arrested a second suspect in connection with a Marrero homicide, according to court records.

Coby Harris, 18, of Marrero, was booked Wednesday with conspiracy to commit second-degree murder and obstruction of justice, said Capt. Jason Rivarde, a spokesman for the department.

Harris' arrest came five days after investigators booked Jyrease Havies, 19, of Terrytown, with solicitation of murder and conspiracy to commit second-degree murder. Havies was already in jail after being booked with second-degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of Christopher Wilson, 21, in Marrero.

The Sheriff's Office declined to comment on Harris' arrest Thursday. It also had declined to comment on Havies' arrest on Monday. But court records indicate the murder conspiracy charges for both men are related to Wilson's Aug. 27 death.
