A fourth person has been charged in connection with a double murder that happened earlier this year.

Lakeisha Hill, 29, of Philadelphia, was arrested Tuesday afternoon at a friend’s house in Trenton. She is accused of being an accomplice in the murders of Jerard Perdomo-Santana and Ivan Rodriguez, as well as the attempted murder of a 29-year-old city man.

Perdomo-Santana, a Philadelphia rapper also known as Elmii Probema, and Rodriguez were shot and killed on the afternoon of January 22 in the 300 block of Washington Street. A third victim suffered gunshot wounds to his shoulder and hand before driving himself to the hospital.

Police have not disclosed a motive for the killings, but one of Perdomo-Santana’s friends has claimed the rapper was a victim of a robbery.

City men Cecil Blake, Shaquille McNeill, and Tashawn Santiago were previously arrested in connection with the murders.
