The latest arrests bring the total to three stemming from the murder of James Wallmuth III.

Wallmuth was 28. All three suspects are teenagers.

York police arrested 18-year-old Joshua Edmoundson on Thursday, the Post-Gazette reported. He has been charged with homicide, robbery and conspiracy.

18-year-old Kenneth Santiago-Curet and 15-year-old Jordan Wallick were apprehended earlier on similar charges. The three were apparently involved in a robbery attempt outside of a popular Downtown York tavern two weeks ago that left Wallmuth with a single gunshot wound to the back.

The 28-year-old victim died in an area hospital later that night.
