“We don’t know what their relationship is – if they were known or unknown,” SFPD spokesperson Officer Albie Esparza told the Chron at the time of the incident. “The suspect then began to shoot at the victim numerous times.”
Apparently that relationship has since been established, as with “cooperation of community members, the Homicide Detail, Violent Reduction Team and Airport Bureau,” says SFPD, they “developed leads and evidence which lead to the identity and ultimate arrest of” Konstantin Solodukhin and Oren Zakhrabov, both aged 22 and residents of San Francisco.
According to police, Solodukhin was nabbed at 2:44 PM Wednesday “inside the San Francisco International Airport terminal just hours before leaving on a one-way international flight outside of the U.S.”
