Two men were arrested in connection with a fatal shooting inside a Brockton hibachi restaurant that left one person dead on Friday, Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz said in an X post late Monday night.

The shooting, which police said was likely not a random act of violence, killed 22-year-old Joe Araujo, officials told The Boston Globe Saturday.

Surveillance video of the shooting shows a hooded person approaching Araujo sitting in a booth inside Hibachi Sushi Supreme Buffet in Brockton before firing at him. Araujo was later pronounced dead at Good Samaritan Hospital. 

Cruz called the shooting “brazen” in his X post and said the two suspects are scheduled to be arraigned at Boston District Court Tuesday. According to the post, a “non-stop investigation” by the Massachusetts State Police and Brockton Police departments lead to the identification and arrest of the two men.
