On Tuesday, police said the shooting was targeted, and likely linked to organized crime.

“This was a violent and targeted incident that resulted in the death of two individuals,” Staff Sgt. Martin Schiavetta said in a news release Tuesday afternoon.

“While we are in the early stages of this investigation, this shooting has the hallmarks of organized crime. We are committed to keeping our community safe and asking anyone with information to contact police.”
