GREENACRES, Fla. — Deputies arrested two 18-year-old men they say are responsible for fatally shooting two teenagers during a robbery in the parking lot of a Greenacres apartment complex in April.

Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested Reginald Pinder, of Boynton Beach, on Wednesday on murder charges of two robbery accompliches after an extensive investigation. On Monday, PBSO announced the arrest of the robbery victim, Isaak Viera Jolteus, of Lake Worth, on manslaughter charges.

The arrests come two months after the fatal shooting that happened just before 11:30 p.m. on April 5 at Island Shores Apartment Homes at 300 Island Shores Drive. Deputies found two male victims in the parking lot, dead from apparent gunshot wounds.

Investigators say Pinder and the two accomplices attempted to rob a man selling marijuana.

One pointed a gun at the person selling marijuana, prompting that person, later identified as Jolteus, to pull out a gun and start shooting in a parking area.

Pinder faces two counts of second-degree felony murder and one count of attempted armed robbery. Jolteus faces two counts of manslaughter with a firearm and one count of sale of marijuana.
