Rashan was struck in the head.

"The shooting took place on the outside of the house, and to my knowledge of the preliminary investigation, no one inside the house was connected to that confrontation," Douglas said.

A description of a car seen near the shooting was given to police, who stopped a vehicle matching its description on Tuesday.

Two men in the car, 18-year-old Shaquille Chamberlain and 20-year-old John Brown III, were taken into custody.
