The man suspected of ordering the botched hit on an innocent Bronx teen has been arrested, police sources said Tuesday.
Officials identified the suspect as 29-year-old Diego Suero of The Bronx. Police are charging him with murder, manslaughter, gang assault, conspiracy and criminal possession of a weapon, officials said.
A second man also was rounded up and is in custody and being questioned in the case, sources said.
Eight men were arrested in the murder last week.
Lesandro “Junior” Guzman-Feliz was hacked with a machete and stabbed with a knife June 20 after he was dragged out of a bodega in a case of mistaken identity.
The teen victim was a member of the NYPD Explorers program for aspiring police officers.
Videos caught various stages of the attack, including the teen trying to hide at a bodega, then being dragged out of the store and fighting for his life.
The bodega owner later said he tried to call 911 but that no help was arriving.
