One in custody, another at large in connection with Days Inn shooting

One suspect has surrendered and another has been charged in connection with a shooting at a Days Inn that left two men wounded. 

Marvin Slaughter Jr., 35, of York City, turned himself in last week in the shooting that left a 41-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the head and a 21-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the leg, Northern York County Regional Police said. 

Slaughter was charged with criminal attempted homicide, aggravated assault, person prohibited from carrying a firearm and recklessly endangering another. 

He was arraigned on those charges Thursday before District Judge Jeffrey Oberdorf. Bail was set at $250,000 and Slaughter was taken to York County Prison after being unable to post bail. 

Police are still looking for Brian Jackson Jr., 22, of York City, in connection with the shooting. 

Jackson is facing charges of criminal attempted homicide, aggravated assault, person prohibited from carrying a firearm and recklessly endangering another. 

Both men are wanted for the Feb. 21 shooting at the Days Inn in the 300 block of Arsenal Road in Manchester Township.
