Investigators said Jordan received a phone call about a meeting, which attracted him to the area. They claim the call came from Anton D. Moore's phone.

Police found a .380 ACP shell casing at the murder scene. Investigators say the gun was linked to another 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 violence. A circuit court judge denied setting bail for Moore.
