BATON ROUGE - After a man was arrested for a drive-by shooting that left a 14-year-old dead, police announced they had made two more arrests of people who were also in the shooter's car at the time. 

The shooting, which happened on Plank Road on Nov. 13, left 14-year-old Eric Taylor dead. 

Police arrested Dylan Fox, 19, for the shooting Nov. 19. Wednesday, police announced two further arrests: 19-year-old Yusef Wesley and 18-year-old Asia Jones.
