Investigators said Jordan had received a phone call about a meeting, which lured him to the area. They claim the call came from Anton D. Moore’s phone.
Police found a .380 ACP caliber cartridge case at the murder scene. Investigators claim that gun was linked to a different shooting linked to Moore, who is a previously convicted felon.
Moore, 32, was charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action. Moore is already in jail, with pending cases for unlawful possession of a firearm and first-degree domestic assault. A circuit court judge denied setting a bond for Moore.
