Investigators say Ervin was with Francisco Jordan and another person when they pulled up near 60th and Carmen, and spotted someone they knew getting off a county bus.

What they're saying:

"They had the driver stop, the two suspects stepped out of the vehicle and began firing their weapons," the investigator said.

A criminal complaint says Ervin and Jordan shot a 15-year-old boy, killing him, and wounded a 16-year-old girl. The suspects took off. Police found the getaway car and the driver days later.

"An interview was conducted December 16th, where the individual gave some more details and the other suspects who fired their weapons," the investigator explained.

Ervin is described as being 6' tall and weighing 180 pounds.
