The Austin American-Statesman had previously refused to print the police's description of the suspect, citing that it would "be harmful in perpetuating stereotypes."
On Monday, the second suspect wanted in connection to the deadly mass shooting in Austin, Texas occurring early Saturday morning was arrested while attending summer school, police say.
17-year-old Jeremiah Roshaun Leland James Tabb was arrested on Monday in Killeen, Texas, while attending a summer school class, according to police. He was arrested without incident.
Tabb will be tried as an adult under Texas law, and was charged with aggravated assault.
According to KXAN, the first suspect arrested on Saturday is a minor under the age of 17.
Police responded to multiple gunshots near the 400 block of E. 6th Street just before 1:30am Saturday. The street, which contains many popular bars among University of Texas students, at that time was barricaded off from vehicle traffic to make way for foot traffic.
Interim Police Chief Joseph Chacon said that investigators believe the incident began as an argument between two parties.
At least 13 people were injured in the shooting, with one 25-year-old male succumbing to his injuries on Sunday, police said.
