Investigators found the two were involved in an altercation, both carrying firearms. Shots were exchanged as they ran and neighbors called police.

Neighbors reported seeing a black four-door sedan before and after the shooting.

Two guns were found in the area surrounding the scene, one was legally registered to Massaiz.

“This excellent work by Montgomery County and Cheltenham detectives was aided by concerned citizens, who shared what they saw and stepped up to help the investigation and we thank them for that,” said Steele. “Even in the midst of the emergent situation with COVID-19, our law enforcement personnel are on the job working to keep everyone safe every day and to handle these crimes as they occur.”

An autopsy found the cause of death to be a gunshot wound to the shoulder and chest.

Massiaz is being held without bail at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility.

A preliminary hearing is set for March 30.
