MAN KILLED IN DRIVE-BY SHOOTING AT BEACH

A 19-year-old man was killed in an apparent drive-by shooting Thursday night, police said.

The name of the victim was withheld until relatives could be notified.

The shooting, in the 3200 block of Crocus Lane, is believed to have occurred about 9 p.m. Police said the victim was shot once in the head and was pronounced dead at the scene.

A person who was in the area gave police information that helped them identify a suspect.

Officers looking for the car and the suspect located the man shortly thereafter. He was arrested without incident and was being questioned late Thursday.
