9 People Charged In Teen's Slaying In Gaithersburg

GAITHERSBURG, Md. (AP) ―

A total of nine people have now been arrested in the slaying of a teen found dead in a Gaithersburg park in January.

The suspects are thought to be connected to the 18th Street gang.

Police say the group began looking for a member of rival gang MS-13 to hurt on Jan. 18. That's when they forced Dennys Guzman-Saenz, 15, into a car, drove him to Malcolm King Park, killed him and dumped his body near a creek.

Investigators say Guzman-Saenz was not an official MS-13 member but did know some members.

Police are still searching for additional suspects.
