First responders determined that he'd died.

After investigating, police filed a warrant to arrest Marcus Miranda on multiple charges, including murder and unlawful possession of a firearm, Massachusetts State Police and the attorney general's office said in a joint release.

Miranda was arrested Monday at Boston Logan International Airport while trying to board an airplane to leave the United States, according to authorities.

Police also filed a murder charge against Govanni Carapinha, 23, who is currently in custody on separate, unrelated charges, authorities said.

Miranda will be arraigned in Brockton District Court Tuesday. It's unclear if he has an attorney who could speak to his charges.

The shooting remains under investigation.
