Piqua police are looking for a third suspect allegedly involved in the Nov. 14 shooting of a teen at a home on Second Street.
Police issued an arrest warrant for Cody A. Mills, 23, of Piqua, for potential charges of aggravated burglary and felonious assault, according to a release from Piqua police.
Police said investigators want to question Mills about the Second Street incident, but also regarding several other recent thefts and burglaries. Mills was last arrested last November on theft-related warrants after officers found him hiding in an attic on Park Avenue, according to the release.
Mills was released from jail in that case in September.
Two people are already being held as part of the investigation into the Second Street shooting incident. Jail records show Angel E. Boyer, 37, is being held on suspicion of permitting drug abuse; obstructing official business; tampering with evidence; and corrupting another with drugs; and James W. Turner III is being held on aggravated burglary and felonious assault.
