Emanuel Albert, 22, was taken into custody this morning at a home on West Pearl Avenue after investigators executed a search warrant.
The deadly shooting happened on October 3. Officers were called to a report of shots fired near the 500 block of Locust Street around 9:30 p.m.
William Ellis, 18, was found lying on the ground near the intersection of Locust Street and North Winnebago Street. He was taken to the hospital, where he died.
An investigation led police to Albert, who was already wanted on an unrelated case for possessing a weapon and drugs.
During Tuesday’s search police say they recovered a loaded handgun.
Albert is charged with first degree murder, possession of a firearm by a repeat felony offender, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, and several other charges.
Albert is being held in the Winnebago County Jail.
