MASHPEE — The police are looking for for a second suspect in Thursday’s shooting, which authorities believe was a botched robbery during a drug buy.

Carlton H. Hendricks III, 20, was arrested Monday in connection with the shooting. John Cardoza, 35, of East Falmouth is also being sought.

According to court documents, a 32-year-old man and his 28-year-old girlfriend were attempting to purchase Percocet pills around 10 p.m. Thursday at Hendricks’ 165 Ninigret Ave. home. But Hendricks and Cardoza allegedly pulled guns and pointed them at the two through the couple’s car windows while the couple was trying to pay for the drugs, the woman said.
