Two 19-year-old men have been charged as accessories in the shotgun slaying of a Lincoln man during a late-night brawl last month.

Online court records say Jose Ferguson, of Bennet, and Shay Dailey, of Lincoln, were two of nine people at the confrontation.

The County Attorney has filed 2nd degree murder charges against an 18-year-old shooting suspect. The suspect was 17 at the time of the shooting.

Due to the suspect's age and the fact that he has not been charged as an adult, 1011 is not releasing his identity at this time.

The teen has not yet appeared in court but will face those charges when he has his first appearance, which still has not been set.

Investigators say the incident erupted late on July 29. They say the suspect shot Naif Al-Kazahy after Al-Kazahy used a baseball bat to hit a man who used brass knuckles to punch Al-Kazahy's brother, Munif.

The teen, Ferguson and Dailey remain in custody.

Online court records don't list the names of their attorneys.
