Salahuddin was arrested for Accessory to a Class 1 Felony.

Police arrested 22-year-old Jahhrasta Fletcher on Sept. 26 for first degree murder, one day after 33-year-old Robert Brannon of Omaha was shot and killed in an alley between 18th Street and Antelope Valley Parkway.

Authorities said Jahhrasta Fletcher was seen on surveillance and later ran away from the scene.

According to LPD and court documents, surveillance video shows Jahhrasta Fletcher and Brannon encountered each other near a local business. Brannon lunged at Fletcher, who pulled a gun and fired at Brannon, according to a probable cause affidavit for Jahhrasta Fletcher’s arrest. Brannon returned fire and fell to the ground. Fletcher then approached Brannon and fired off additional shots at close range.

Jahhfarr Fletcher and Jahhrasta Fletcher are brothers.
