Montgomery Village resident Oliver Alexis Perez Fierro has been charged with murder and other offenses after getting into an argument with another man who wound up dead, officials say.

Officers were called at 11:39 a.m. on Aug. 12 to the 19300 block of Club House Road in Montgomery Village, where there was a reported shooting with one man down in the area suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.

An hour later, the Montgomery County Department of Police announced that the shooting was being investigated as a homicide.

Perez Fierro was identified as a possible suspect, and he was taken into custody less than an hour after the shooting was reported.

During a search of his home, police say that "items of evidentiary value were recovered," and a warrant was issued for Perez Fierro's arrest, charging him with first-degree murder and use of a handgun in the commission of a felony.

The incident is believed to be isolated.

Perez Fierro is being held at the Montgomery County Central Processing Unit pending a bond hearing.

More information is expected to be released about the victim.
