Investigators say the man argued with two “males selling water.” During that argument, police say the man was shot and the suspects ran before they got there.
They are now sharing photos of a man who appears to be buying several bottles of water at a convenience store in the moments before the shooting.
Channel 2′s Tom Jones was near the scene when several officers detained several young men not far from where the shooting happened. It’s unclear if they were involved.
