Two people in custody in connection with Antioch shooting death

Officers with the Antioch Police Department and Lake County Major Crime Task Force have taken two people into custody in connection with the fatal shooting of a 42-year-old Wisconsin man in an Antioch apartment late Monday.

Deputy Chief Christopher Covelli, a spokesman for the task force, said investigators took the two people into custody around noon Wednesday.

Antioch police arrived at the apartment on Main Street just after 11 p.m. Monday. Neighbors had reported hearing gunfire inside the apartment, and officers found victim's body inside.

The Lake County coroner's office on Wednesday identified the man as Robbie Dickerson of Racine.

Police said the shooting appears to be a "targeted, isolated incident."

An autopsy report released Wednesday said Dickerson died from multiple gunshot wounds.
