A Manhattan man was arrested over the weekend on a warrant for attempted first degree murder stemming from an October shooting at a house party.
The Riley County Police Department says 18-year-old Marc Oliver is facing charges of attempted murder and aggravated battery, in addition to single counts of criminal discharge of a firearm and probation violation.
The charges are from an early morning shooting at a house party Oct. 21 in the 400 block of Bluemont Avenue. Police say arriving officers that morning found two male victims with gunshot wounds. A third later arrived at the hospital with a gunshot wound.
Oliver becomes the fourth person to be charged in connection to the shooting. Police previously had arrested 21-year-old Cordarius Gowdy and 18-year-old Damerius McGee, both of Ogden, and 21-year-old Christopher Stowers, of Manhattan, charging them each with three counts of attempted first-degree murder and three counts of aggravated battery, as well as one count of firing into an occupied dwelling.
The three men were arrested within a week of the shooting. Oliver remained at large, with police at the time issuing an attempt to locate him in late October.
Oliver is jailed on a $1 million bond. All four suspects are confined in the Riley County Jail.
