Report: Arrest Made in Shooting Death of Nicoleia Taylor

Shooter still at large, according to published reports.

Police have made an arrest in the shooting death of Nicoleia Taylor last week on DeKalb Avenue, according to News 12 Brooklyn, but are still seeking the man who they say pulled the trigger. 

Investigators have reportedly put the collar on a man named Allen Shaw, who they say gave suspect Corey Brown the gun that killed Taylor, News 12 reported.

Police are still searching for Brown more than a week after the incident. 

Friday night, Taylor's family hosted a vigil for her outside their home. They told News 12 that she was walking with the intended target of last Tuesday's shooting.
