Arrest Made In Shooting

A Tennessee man is in custody in connection to a deadly shooting earlier this month in Noblesville.

Ruai Ngundeng Pal, a 22-year-old Franklin, Tenn. man, was arrested by Franklin police and charged with murder and six other felonies in connection to the April 6 shooting at 21506 Raccoon Ct. in Noblesville. He is being held in the Williamson County Jail in Tennessee awaiting extradition.

Earlier this week investigators from the Noblesville Police Department appeared in Hamilton County Superior Court 5 to preliminary charges against Pal. Investigators said Pal was the man who accompanied Grayson Aubrey Rhue to the residence before shots were fired that fatally wounded Rhue. At the time, officers from NPD said they were trying to locate another person they believed wore a mask and gloves. Police reported they did not believe the shooting was a random act.

In addition to murder, Pal is charged with two burglary with a deadly weapon charges, two armed robbery charges, intimidation and pointing a firearm at another.

Police said the investigation is continuing. They ask anyone with any information to contact Det. Spencer Flowers at sflowers@noblesville.in.us.
