    Police believe the victim and the suspect in the November 12 shooting knew each other. The motive and relationship between the suspect and victim is still being investigated.

    “Early in our investigation we noticed similarities between these two cases. Due to the violent nature and the closeness of time, public safety has become a priority for us,” Staff Sgt. Sean Gregson said.

    “With this arrest, we have removed that threat from the community, to ensure the safety of the public,” Gregson said.

    Roan will appear in court on Tuesday.
