KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Authorities are still searching for the second suspect they think was involved in the deadly shooting in Fort Sanders last Thursday.

Eighteen year-old Jason Harris is wanted on charges of Felony Murder, Attempted First Degree Murder, Aggravated Robbery, Especially Aggravated Kidnapping, and two counts of Attempted Aggravated Robbery.

He is described as a black man, 5'11" tall, around 160 lbs., with brown eyes and black hair. His last known address was 2046 E. Fifth Avenue.

On Tuesday morning, Knox County Sheriff's deputies arrested the other man believed to be involved, Devin Jamison, at a house on Parkview Avenue.

Jamison was interviewed by investigators before he was taken to the Knox County Detention Facility.

Authorities believe Jamison killed 19-year-old Sawyer Webb during a robbery attempt at a Grand Forest apartment and shot Crestus Roser in the leg.

He faces six charges, including Felony Murder, Attempted First Degree Murder, Aggravated Robbery, Especially Aggravated Kidnapping, and two counts of Attempted Aggravated Robbery.

He was also charged with an additional count of robbery from a separate incident on Hembree Steet on the same day.
