Durham police have arrested a second man in connection with May 2012 homicide on Mordecai Street.

Officers responded to a shooting call in the 3300 block of Mordecai Street at 2:29 a.m. on May 1, 2012. They found Carl Anthony Pressley, 35, of 3307 Mordecai St. shot inside his apartment. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
