Another 14-year-old boy, Rashaun Weaver, was charged on Saturday as an adult in the killing.

Weaver is charged with two counts of murder in the second degree — including one count as intentional murder and one count as felony murder –and Lewis is charged with one count of murder in the second degree as felony murder. Both are charged with first- and second-degree robbery.

Weaver and Lewis both pleaded not guilty Wednesday.
