Second man charged for Mattapan murder

Abiona Justice Sharpe, 20, of Revere, was arrested in New Jersey this week on charges he helped murder a man standing on the sidewalk at 23 Wilcock St. on May 13, according to Boston Police and the Suffolk County District Attorney's office.

Earlier this month, officials charged a Dorchester teen-ager, Damante Burrell, for the murder of Fred Bing as well. Police say they found Bing's body the next morning, riddled with bullet holes.

Officials say Sharpe was arrested Tuesday in South Brunswick, NJ by Boston police officers, local police and federal marshals. He faces an extradition hearing in New Jersey next week.
