Howard was arrested in Mahoning County, Ohio, on Wednesday. He is charged with criminal homicide.

Angelina Masi, Hakim’s girlfriend, is also charged in connection to the shooting. She is accused of driving Howard to the scene of the crime.

New Castle Police Chief Dave Cumo called the crime personal.

“It was very intentional. It was all six shots fired in close range. He was definitely the intended target. This was not a random attack,” Cumo said.

Masi was taken into custody on April 23.

There’s no word yet on when Howard will be extradited to Pennsylvania.
