A man is arrested in Magoffin County in connection with a deadly drive-by shooting in Floyd County last year.

A dispatcher tells Mountain News that J.R. Allen was picked up in the Middle Fork area.

He is the second person to be charged with murder in connection with the crime.

In August, 2008 Sally Vance was hit and later died following a shootout between people in a car and people in a home on Third Street in Allen.

Vance was a passenger in the car.

Jessie Dulaney, who was driving the car and was also injured, was arrested shortly after the shooting.

J.R. Allen was also indicted and is charged with murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

Allen was taken to the Big Sandy Regional Detention Center.

It doesn't matter if he shot in self defense. He is a convicted felon in possession of a firearm. He will get time for that.. I hope he goes to prison out of state.... Alaska is a good place for him.
