Arrest made after man killed in shooting at Arden-Arcade business

An arrest has been made after a man was killed in a weekend shooting at an Arden-Arcade business, officials said on Tuesday.

Just before 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said that deputies were called to a business located at 1050 Howe Ave. after receiving reports of a shooting.

The sheriff's office said a 31-year-old man was found shot in the chest, and that he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The shooter was gone by the time deputies arrived. Homicide detectives launched an extensive investigation and, through video surveillance and witness statements, identified 28-year-old Xander Burnside as the suspect in the killing.

Just after noon on Tuesday, the sheriff's office said detectives located Burnside in Pinole in the San Francisco Bay Area and took him into custody without incident.

Burnside was transported to the Sacramento County Main Jail, where he was booked on a murder charge and is ineligible for bail.
