MALDEN, MA An Everett man has been charged with murder in the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Jaden Brito-White in late December. Sifeddine Rogadi, 20, was arrested Tuesday, the Middlesex District Attorney s office said. He is believed to be one of two men involved in the shooting on Bowdoin Street Dec. 29.
Investigators say Brito-White was standing outside his apartment building when two men came up and shot him. He was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital with multiple gunshot wounds, where he was later pronounced dead.
Surveillance video from the area showed a Chevy Malibu with a distinct plate color in the area at the time of the shooting. Police seized the car as it was being driven by Rogadi and found a loaded 9-mm handgun that matched the type of gun used in the shooting, the DA s office said.
