An arrest has been made in Providence‘s second murder of the year.

Derell Johnson, 21, was held without bail on one count of murder Monday morning and will go before a judge as a Superior Court probation violator later this afternoon.

Johnson is accused of shooting 21-year-old Briana Giorgio, of Cranston, on Webster Avenue on April 1st.
