Officials arrested and charged Carlos Wright, 18, with robbery with a dangerous weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and Tyquann Lamar Talley, 17, with robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy to commit robbery late Friday evening.

Wright was given a $1.1 million bond, and Talley was given a $400,000 bond.

Freddy Garcia, who was shot once in the incident, was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury.

Police said a fourth suspect is still on the run: Nina Dunn is also charged with conspiracy to commit an armed robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy to commit robbery.

The shooting happened in the Ashton Square shopping center in the 4000 block of Capital Boulevard. Investigators said the shooting was not random.

Another victim was shot, but police did not release the second victim's identity. Authorities said both victims were alert and talking to emergency personnel while being taken to WakeMed.

At least one person was questioned by police, along with witnesses who were in the area at the time, police said. At least two vehicles were surrounded by police tape following the shooting.

"We heard the shooting across the street. It was very scary," shopper Terri Bell said. "When I heard the shooting people were running. When we got over here, people were still running."

​Officials said White and Talley were being held at the Wake County Detention Center.

No other information about the incident has been released.
