When police arrived, they located a male victim, who has now been identified as 55-year-old Mohamed Said Mohamed, suffering from gunshot wounds, investigators said.

He was pronounced dead at the scene a short time later.

In a news release issued Tuesday, police confirmed that 64-year-old Abdiaziz Abdi was arrested in connection with the fatal shooting and has been charged with murder.
