Officers found Odogwu Ganobi bleeding out near the intersection of Chelmsford Street and Maitland Avenue around 7 p.m. and rushed him to Tufts Medical Center in Boston, the Middlesex District Attorney's Office said.
He died of his wounds later that night. The chief medical examiner's office conducted an autopsy and ruled the killing a homicide.
Investigation suggests Ganobi got into a fight about a traffic dispute with two parties who were not known to him, the DA's office said on Friday. From this information, police were able to generate a description of one of the suspects. Authorities believe they are a Hispanic male, stadning about 5'7" with a slender build, the office reports.
The Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, Lowell Police and Massachusetts State Police detectives assigned to the District Attorney’s office are actively investigating at this time. Detectives ask anyone with information about the slaying to contact Lowell Police at 978-937-3200.
