PHOENIX — An arrest has been made in the death of a man who was shot Sunday near 7th Avenue and Lincoln Street.
Alfred L. Lopez, 38, was taken into custody Wednesday on suspicion of killing a man a few days earlier.
The victim was found lying in a pool of blood and later died in the hospital, court records show.
Security footage reviewed by police showed the victim being confronted by a suspect who allegedly resembled Lopez.
Two other people involved in the incident told investigators the victim allegedly took their bicycle earlier that day, public records show.
The two subjects got in their car and drove around looking for their bike until they found the victim, who allegedly put the bike down and ran off.
