Three men were arrested in connection with the shooting death of a 13-year-old boy , Texas police said.

Tristian Phelps was fatally shot around 2 a.m. on April 28, Marshall police said. A “distressing” 911 call to police reported 20 to 30 shots were fired before a vehicle sped away, police said in an Facebook post.

“It is believed that this incident stemmed from an earlier confrontation,” police said. Authorities did not share if the teen was involved.

Phelps was taken to the hospital and died later that day, according to police.

Three men were arrested in connection with Phelps’ killing, police announced on May 1.

Donyan Dillard, 35, Devan Hurd, 22, and Jaquavious Robinson, 21, were charged with murder, police said. The three men are held in Harrison County Jail.

“While our investigation continues and we make further progress, we remain grateful for the assistance provided by the community,” police said in a Facebook post. “Your cooperation has been invaluable and continues to be crucial.”

Phelps was a student at Marshall Junior High School.

“Tristian will be greatly missed by his peers and teachers,” the district said in a Facebook post.

Marshall is about a 150-mile drive east of Dallas.
