    Fort Worth police arrested a second man Monday in a shooting that killed a 17-year-old girl and 18-year-old man three weeks ago in an east Fort Worth park.

    Dontae Woods, 17, was booked at the Fort Worth Police Detention Center Monday in connection with the Dec. 29 shooting deaths of Cyanna Boone and Frank Price Jr. at Stop Six Park in the 1500 block of Liberty Street, according to police records.

    Woods’ arrest comes three days after police arrested Ricco Henderson, 18, in connection to the shootings.

    Police said that around 20 people met at the park on Dec. 29 and an argument led a gunman to begin shooting a handgun at victims. Police have not further described the details of the argument.

    Boone was pronounced dead at the park, while police found Price at the 1700 block of Handley Drive in a parked car. He later died at a hospital.

    The 17-year-old girl killed in east Fort Worth Park shooting was “a light in every room she entered,” her family said.

    Cyanna Boone, was one out of two people fatally shot on Monday, Dec. 29 at Stop Six Park in the 1500 block of Liberty Street.

    “Her contagious smile, vibrant personality, and warm spirit made people feel seen and loved. She was outgoing, intelligent, kind, and truly beautiful inside and out,” wrote Chante Williams, the organizer of a GoFundMe page. “Cyanna had a way of bringing joy effortlessly, and her presence left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.”

    Officers were working on an unrelated disturbance call about 2:15 p.m. when they heard shots coming from the Stop Six Park. When officers arrived they found Boone on the ground with gunshot wounds, police have said.

    Boone had “dreams, potential, and her entire life ahead of her,” according to the GoFundMe post organized for funeral expenses.

    “Our hearts are broken, and our family and community are mourning the loss of someone who was deeply loved by so many,” her family wrote.

    Group fight led to two fatalities

    Officers responded to a separate shooting call in the 1700 block of Handley Drive about 2:20 p.m., where officers found a parked car occupied with one person with a gunshot wound, police said.

    The victim apparently was shot at the park and drove or was driven to the area near a gas station on Handley Drive.

    The Tarrant County Medical examiner’s office has not publicly identified the second victim.

    Boone was one of 15 to 20 people who met at the city park where an argument led to a fight, when an unknown gunman began shooting a handgun at the homicide victims, according to police.

    No arrests have been announced in the shootings.
