MILLCREEK — Police arrested a man Monday in connection with a fatal shooting that happened in Millcreek the day before.
Unified police responded at 5:01 p.m. Sunday to a call of a suspicious death at the Revolve Apartments in Millcreek, 764 W. 3940 South. When officers arrived, they located one adult dead from a gunshot wound, according to Unified Police Sgt. Aymee Race.
The victim was identified by Unified police Monday as Dominik Philip, 29.
Police said they detained and questioned five people who were present at the scene of the shooting while the violent crimes unit of the Unified Police Department investigated. Monday afternoon, however, the five people detained were released, police said.
"Initial information suggested the shooting may have been accidental or self-inflicted. However, further investigation uncovered inconsistencies," a police statement issued Monday night says.
A firearm was recovered from the scene and evidence suggested possible foul play, the statement says. Deng Auling, 30, was arrested Monday evening for investigation of murder, police said.
Anyone with information about the shooting is encouraged to call Unified police.
