Police believe gunman to be among ID'd homicide suspects

Madison Police believe they may have identified the gunman responsible for the homicide of a Madison man last Wednesday.

Antonio Perez, 19, was shot outside of Webcrafters on Fordem Avenue, the printing and book-manufacturing business where Perez was working, while on break.

Friday, police identified Billy Wenner-Say, 24, and Arain Gutierrez, 18, to be connected with the gang-related crime and now believe one of them to be the gunman responsible for slaying Perez.

Police arrested Karen Giron-Cruz, 19, late Friday on ""a tentative charge of being a party to the homicide,"" according to the police report.

The car used in the homicide was found by police Friday afternoon at her residence on the 1700 block of Baird Street.

Although police do not yet know whether either Gutierrez or Wenner-Say were the gunman, the two are believed to be the main players in the shooting, spokesman Joel DeSpain told the Wisconsin State Journal.

Police have not yet identified the other two men who were with Gutierrez and Wenner-Say.
