Investigators are looking for a third person in connection to the shooting that killed one 17-year-old and injured three others outside a Dorchester high school earlier this month, The Boston Globe reports.

Two men, Jonathan Aguasvivas, 23, of Roxbury, and Benzy Bain, 24, of Mattapan, were arrested Wednesday and charged with murder in the fatal June 8 shooting of Raekwon Brown near the Jeremiah E. Burke High School, where he was a student.

Brown’s brother, Stanley Wiggins, told the Globe the family has been informed by investigators that police continue to look for the person who fired the gun in the shooting.

The last two weeks have been a nightmare for his family, he told the Globe.

“It’s been a traumatic loss. There were days we anticipated he would walk through the door and come back,” he said. “Right now we just want justice for my brother.”
