Suspect in Fatal Boston Shooting Due in Court

The suspect in a fatal shooting in Boston's Brighton neighborhood last month faces arraignment.

Gammada Musa is scheduled to be arraigned on a murder charge Monday in connection with the Oct. 22 death of Desmond Joseph.

The 30-year old Joseph was shot multiple times on Telford Street and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police Commissioner William Evans said several anonymous tips helped police track the 25-year-old Musa to New Bedford.

He was arrested Friday and is scheduled to be arraigned in Brighton District Court.

It's not clear if Musa has a lawyer, but his mother and brother tell The Boston Globe they do not think he shot Joseph.
