They have obtained an arrest warrant charging Reynaldo "Ray" Zamora-Marcial, 26, with the murder of Torres-Cruz, 21, of Raleigh.

Police were called to the 3100 block of Woodpecker Court, near Poole and Sunnybrook roads, shortly after 5 p.m. Saturday. When they arrived at the scene, they found Torres-Cruz outdoors, dead from a gunshot wound.

Police said Zamora-Marcial was last seen wearing a white polo shirt with dark brown stripes, blue jean shorts, white tennis shoes and white socks. He was said to have recently had a thin blond mustache. His hair may be spiked, and he may have sideburns that extend to the level of his ear lobes.

* Raul Zamora-Marcial, 26. He is Ray Zamora-Marcial's brother.

* Alejandro Noyola-Marcial, 29, who may also be known as Alejandro Marcial-Noyola.

All three men live in Raleigh and may be connected to a vehicle described as a cream-colored Ford Explorer, police said.
