The arrested teen has been charged with first-degree robbery and first-degree murder. Police said they’re looking for the other suspect, named by police as Kenan Adams-Kinard, 16.
Police said the victim — Delbert Belton — was beaten and left for dead by two teens outside a lounge in Spokane where he loved to go play pool.
