BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. (CBS) — A man was accused of shooting another man as he walked to his car in Bridgeview earlier this week.

Anthony Calderon, 20, of Bedford Park, was arrested late Friday night and charged with first-degree murder.

On Wednesday, the victim, identified as Arturo Cantu, 39, was shot twice around 5 a.m. in the 7300 block of West 79th Street.

Police said the victim started his car remotely and was walking toward it when he was confronted by Calderon, who shot him.

Cantu’s body was found on the easement near his apartment, where he was pronounced dead.

Bridgeview Police and the Major Crime Task Force secured video from a nearby business that identified Calderon as a suspect.

Authorities said the shooting was an isolated incident.

The reason behind the shooting is still under investigation.
