The NYPD said they arrested two suspects behind a shocking shooting inside a barbershop in the Bronx last month.

On Thursday at about 8:50 p.m., Brandon Beltres, 18, of the Bronx, was taken into custody. He was charged with attempted murder, assault, and reckless endangerment. A 17-year-old male was arrested on Oct. 28. The identity of the suspect was not released.

Beltres and the other suspect wore masks as they shot the 22-year-old victim on Oct. 22 while he was sitting in a chair of the shop on East Gun Hill Road in the Norwood section. 

One of the men pulled a handgun and shot the victim, hitting him in the stomach and sending the victim falling to the floor.
