Officers responded for a reported disturbance at a home in Woburn around 3:40 a.m. on Monday, Feb. 20, according to Woburn Police Chief Robert Rufo. Upon arrival, officers found two men suffering from gunshot wounds.
One man, later identified as 22-year-old Mussie Nirayo, of Cambridge, was pronounced dead at the scene, the Middlesex County District Attorney's Office reports. The other man, identified as 26-year-old Tyler Olivier, of Woburn, was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment
Initial investigation suggests the men knew each other and that this was not a random act of violence, Rufo added.
Olivier was arrested and charged with possession of a firearm and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon as a result, the DA's Office said. He was not charged with murder.
Olivier is expected to be arraigned Tuesday in Woburn District Court. The incident remains under investigation.
