The Los Angeles Police Department has arrested four suspects in connection with the murder of former "General Hospital" actor Johnny Wactor. The 37-year-old actor was fatally shot three months ago in May in downtown Los Angeles after finishing his bartending shift. The incident occurred when Wactor encountered individuals attempting to steal the catalytic converter from his vehicle. Among the arrested suspects, three have been identified as gang members, and three of them are teens. The arrests mark a significant development in the case, which had remained unsolved for several months.
