Detectives charged Skyler James Agley, also of Manassas. He was one of two people shot during the altercation outside of the mall. The shooting involved two groups and occurred just after 2 p.m. on Tuesday, initially sparking panic at the mall as people inside heard the shots and took cover.
All three suspects in the Manassas Mall shooting face similar charges: malicious wounding, shooting at an occupied building, willfully discharging a firearm in a public place, carrying a firearm in a public place, and using a firearm in the commission of a felony.
Russell and Minas Hernandez each face two counts of malicious wounding, while Agley, who remains hospitalized, faces one count of that charge.
The other person who was shot is expected to survive, police said.
Investigators are looking for additional information about the identities of other suspects. If you know anything about the crime or the people pictured above, you are asked to call the police at 703-792-6500.
