Virginia Police arrested a 15-year-old male on July 20 for the charges of Murder, Use of a Firearm in the Commission of a Felony and Conspiracy to Comit a Felony.

The juveniles' identification was not released, but he is being held in the Virginia Beach Juvenile Detention Center without Bond.

Family members of Martin said he was turning 19-years-old on Saturday, the day after he was killed.

His father, Nick Saucier, said it's been tough on the family

"It's already given that you're going to lose a parent, not given you're going to lose a child," said Saucier.

He said right now, they're not talking much about the case and will let police do their work.

"Whatever case they build, I'm not going to do anything or say anything that may jeopardize their case," he said.

Martin's family said he leaves behind a 10-month-old daughter.
