William Holmes, the second suspect in Sunday's shooting on Duquesne's campus, turned himself in to the Pittsburgh Police and will be arraigned later.

Holmes, arrested Wednesday afternoon, and Brandon Baynes, both 18 and of Penn Hills, face charges of attempted homicide, aggravated assault and criminal conspiracy.

Baynes arraigned yesterday.

The teenagers -- neither of whom is a Duquesne student -- attended an on-campus dance sponsored by the Black Student Union on Saturday night, according to police as guests of a Duquesne student, Brittany Jones.

Earlier today, Duquesne suspended Ms. Jones for multiple violations of the Duquesne University Student Code of Conduct.

Shots were fired early Sunday morning, as the party was breaking up and students were walking back to their dorms, police said. Five Duquesne basketball players were hit. Two (Sam Ashaolu and Stuard Baldonado) remain hospitalized; Sam is still in critical condition.
