Two suspects have been arrested in connection with a deadly shooting in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, that occurred last week. Denajah Bailey and Amaury Sahad were taken into custody following the death of 20-year-old Xavier Jeffers. According to police, Jeffers was shot and killed last Wednesday with a stolen gun.

Bailey, who is also 20 years old, faces charges of third-degree murder. The shooting took place inside a residence on West Street, where Bailey allegedly shot Jeffers in the head. Initially, the incident was reported as an accidental shooting, but further investigation by authorities ruled out that possibility.

In the same case, Sahad has been charged with receiving stolen property. The charges stem from his alleged involvement with the stolen firearm used in the shooting. The investigation is ongoing as authorities continue to gather evidence and details surrounding the incident.
