CLEVELAND -- Police in Lorain have arrested the man wanted for the fatal shooting of a 34-year-old man on Cleveland's southwest side on Monday morning.
34-year-old Edwin Manuel Figueroa is now in custody after Cleveland Police believe he shot his 22-year-old co-worker multiple times outside of US Cotton LLC. Police say the shooting happened around 9:24 a.m. Monday at the 4400 block of W. 149th Street.
Figueroa and the victim apparently had an ongoing feud which led to them setting up a fight outside of their workplace. Figueroa reportedly got out of his vehicle, confronted the victim, shot him multiple times, and drove off.
The victim, who has not yet been identified, was taken to MetroHealth Medical Center, where he succumbed to his injuries.
Officers obtained information on Figueroa and discovered that he lives in Lorain. A warrant was obtained and he was taken into custody by the Lorain Police Department.
The case remains under investigation.
