Career criminal Anthony Lorenzi is charged with first-degree murder and is awaiting extradition to Illinois, police in Chicago said Saturday

A 34-year-old man sought by police in the fatal shooting of a couple at a Puerto Rican culture celebration in Chicago has been arrested in California.

Anthony Lorenzi is charged with first-degree murder and is awaiting extradition to Illinois, police in Chicago said Saturday. 

Yasmin Perez and her boyfriend Gyovanni Arzuaga died from injuries sustained during the brutal ambush last month.

Lorenzi was arrested Friday by U.S. marshals in the parking lot of an apartment complex in San Diego.

The attack unfolded during Chicago's Puerto Rican Day parade, which Perez and Arzuaga participated in, flying a large Puerto Rican flag from their vehicle.

Chicago police Superintendent David Brown said Saturday that investigators learned that Lorenzi fled to San Diego the morning after Arzuaga and Perez were shot June 19 following the parade in Chicago's Humboldt Park neighborhood.

A man has been charged in the shooting death last month of a father of two during an attack at the Puerto Rican Day parade in Humboldt Park,
 and authorities said Saturday the children’s mother appears to have been unintentionally shot to death by the father during the “frenzy” of the night’s events.

Lessee, the couple executed were flying a great big Puerto Rican flag. Would it be going too far to suggest that perhaps the shooting was racially motivated?

It may be, but there was also, I believe, an argument about whether their car bumped the car that was parked ahead of their car on the street.  That bump may have been what precipitated the killings.

That'd be one helluva escalation.
