“Jeremy Murphy shot and killed the victim with a 9mm handgun while at 411½ Clover Street,” read an affidavit. “The defendant then fled to his home.”
A man reported witnessing the shooting, documents stated.
After a SWAT standoff on Hulbert Street, Murphy was taken into custody and arrested. While searching the home police found a 9mm handgun, according to court documents.
The victim, whose identity has not been released, died from his injuries.
Murphy and the victim were acquaintances, Lt. Jason Hall said Friday, but it was not clear what led to the shooting.
Murphy initially was booked into jail on suspicion of murder, but has only been charged with two counts of having weapons while under disability.
On Monday, his bond was set at $1 million.
