The suspects are Tishawn Thorton, 20, and Sircharles Bradshaw, 16.
Arrest warrants for murder, attempted murder, and assault with a deadly weapon have been issued for both. Police say the suspects should be considered armed and dangerous.
Univision 21 reported that Thorton has been arrested twice this year for possession of a firearm. Bradshaw is on probation on a charge of assault with bodily harm and was arrested previously for robbery.
Joseph Riley, 26, died in a hail of bullets shortly before noon on Dec. 13 at the Superior Smoke Shop. The business is in the Princeton Square mall in the 2700 block of Blackstone Avenue.
A second shooting victim, Riley’s 19-year-old brother, survived a bullet wound to his face.
