A father and son have been arrested over a drive-by taking pictures that killed an Indiana highschool soccer star in a suspected case of mistaken identification.

Christopher Wilson Jr., a standout participant at Yorktown High School who had dedicated to play at West Virginia University, was gunned down earlier this month in his automobile while he and his girlfriend were coming back from a restaurant.

Police have now arrested Dairus E. Thompson III, 17, and his father, Dairus E. Thompson II, 40, for allegedly working collectively to homicide the “gentle giant” athlete they mistook for a lookalike man the dad had been beefing with, according to charging paperwork obtained by Fox 59.

The teen Thompson is accused of pulling the set off while getting “step-by-step instructions” from his father, the docs alleged.

Video allegedly exhibits the dad’s white GMC Acadia driving through the neighborhood before dashing away moments after the taking pictures.

Police searched the dad’s cellphone and discovered a video recording that appeared to be from inside the Acadia in which he can be heard “talking about how to conduct a drive-by shooting and (giving) step-by-step instructions on how to do so,” according to the charging paperwork.

One witness advised investigators that Thompson II — who also goes by “Gotto” or “lil Gotto” — had said that Wilson’s dying was a mistake and he thought the teenager was the individual he beefed with.

Thompson II advised one witness he “let lil bros rockout” — which the witness interpreted as Thompson saying he had his son do the Oct. 5 taking pictures.

Witnesses also advised police that Thompson II and his son tried to commerce the gun they used in the taking pictures, telling one witness to “get rid of it.” Investigators later tracked down the weapon, which was a ballistic match to that used in the deadly taking pictures.

Thompson II was arrested last week and charged with inducing or inflicting homicide.

Dairus E. Thompson III  was busted in Detroit on Thursday and charged with homicide, conspiracy to commit homicide and obstruction of justice. He is awaiting extradition back to Indiana.

Wilson, a highschool senior, was an elite defensive finish for the Yorktown Tigers, whom he led to a sectional championship last yr and earned the distinction as Delaware County’s first-ever four-star recruit, according to his obituary. 

The “gentle giant” had dedicated to play for the West Virginia Mountaineers in June and was set to graduate early from highschool in December.

He leaves behind a massive household, including three sisters and 4 brothers.

“Despite national attention for his athletic abilities, Christopher remained humble and grounded. He never sought the spotlight or allowed his success to change who he was,” his obituary reads.

“The young man underneath the helmet was what made Christopher truly special. His humility, kindness, determination, and the relationships he built left a lasting impression on his family, friends, classmates, coaches, teammates, and community.”
