two arrested in fatal grocery shooting

It's not just restaurants.... In the Philadelphia area, two teens have been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of Lu Jiaxing at his grocery store last week. According to police, Darrin White, 19 and James Canady, 15, apparently tried to rob Lu, but he stood up and fought back, managing to get them out of the store. But then Canady pulled a gun and shot him. This story was written last week, when the cops had White in custody on murder, robbery and weapons charges: Lawncrest slay suspect surrenders. Canady turned himself in a few days later: Boy surrenders in grocer slaying. Devastated by their loss, the Lu famly has now given up on Philadelphia and plans to move to New York: As suspect surrenders, a family gives up on city.
