The 20-year-old victim was not known to police.
Investigators are trying to determine how the pair knew each other.
“Yes, he does have ties to gangsterism and gangs, but we don’t believe the actual homicide was gang-motivated,” Sgt. Frank Jang with IHIT said of the suspect. “I want to be clear about that.”
