CLINTON, Iowa — A Clinton man is dead after police discovered him lying on a sidewalk Wednesday night suffering from a gunshot wound, according to the Clinton Police Department.
Thursday afternoon, police arrested and charged a 17-year-old with his murder.
Officers responded to a shooting call in the 100 block of North 5th Street just before 10:40 p.m. Wednesday. That's when they found 35-year-old Zachary McDivitt suffering from a gunshot wound.
McDivitt was transported to a nearby hospital where he later died.
The preliminary investigation into the circumstances of McDivitt's death brought investigators to charge Kyler Jay Andresen of Clinton with first-degree murder, a Class A Felony.
The investigation is ongoing, according to police.
Those with any information about the incident are asked to call the Clinton Police Department at (563) 243-1458 or the anonymous tip line at (563) 242-6595.
McDivitt's death comes days after another man, 43-year-old Antoine Sampson, was found shot in the middle of a road. He was found at the intersection of 5th Avenue South and South 5th Street.
Sampson died from his injuries. Police have not indicated if the cases are related.
