Ivis Perdomo, 39, was arrested late last week during an ongoing investigation into the Dec. 7 shooting outside Rain on Water Street, which witnesses said occurred after a sedan was bumped by an SUV containing Julius Dubose, also known as A Boogie wit da Hoodie.
Authorities hadn’t yet charged anyone with shooting the 18-year-old member of Dubose’s group in the head. At this point, however, evidence clearly points to Perdomo having brought the gun to the scene, Bergen County Prosecutor's Chief of Detectives Robert Anzilotti said.
A witness told police the shooting started after an SUV containing Dubose and his crew bumped a 2020 Mercedes sedan.

Dubose wasn’t involved in the shooting, authorities said.
However, he, his manager and a bodyguard were busted after Bergen County prosecutor's detectives investigating the shooting said they went to the Bronx-born rapper’s Demarest house with NYPD investigators hours later and found four guns.

All three men remained free following initial court appearances.
Perdomo, meanwhile, was being held in the Essex County Correctional Facility in Newark pending his first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court in Hackensack, Musella said Tuesday.
Perdomo has a criminal history of drug-related offenses stretching back to 2004, records show.
At the moment, he's charged with unlawful weapons possession, being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun and hindering his arrest.
