WAGONER COUNTY, Okla. - Deputies arrested a second person of interest connected with the shooting death and torching of a 15-year-old Wagoner County boy.

While Wagoner County Sheriff Chris Elliott identified Thompson as a person of interest in the death of Brennon Davis on Tuesday, he said Thompson was not considered a suspect.

Thompson was booked into the Wagoner County Jail on $100,000 bond.
