A 19-year-old Chattanooga man arrested in connection with a shooting Tuesday night was free on bond from murder charges in a separate shooting.
Police arrested Demetrius Bibbs on Wednesday for a shooting at 2601 Fourth Ave. that injured 28-year-old Guy Wilkerson. Police believe the shooting is gang-related, according to a news release.
Bibbs has been charged with attempted first-degree murder, aggravated assault and unlawful possession of a weapon.
Last month, he received probation for a 2-year-old robbery charge.
And next week, he’s scheduled in court in connection with the March 2011 killing of Ronald Blackmon Jr., who died from a .38-caliber gunshot to his head. Bibbs and Edward Ryals, 19, were indicted in April 2011 on murder charges in Blackmon’s death.
