A suspected gang member was arrested Monday in the murder of the 13-year-old boy who was gunned down on a Brooklyn street on his way home from a Nets game five months ago – though the shooter is still on the lam, authorities and law enforcement sources said.
Sheik Koureichi, 20, was hit with charges of second-degree murder and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon in the slaying of teen Troy Gill, according to an indictment from Brooklyn prosecutors.
Koureichi, of Brooklyn, was allegedly in the car when a gunman fired a barrage of bullets at Gill, fatally striking him before he collapsed on the sidewalk on February 29, sources told The Post.

Gill was on his way home from a Brooklyn Nets game at the Barclays Center before he was hit in the chest and upper body in Crown Heights around 10:40 p.m.
