The crime happened on Sunday at about 10:50 p.m. at a home in the 7600 block of Talcott Avenue, Chicago police said.

A woman told Chicago police she found her brother, 63-year-old George Levin, tied up in a basement bedroom in Norwood Park.

The coroner's office later said Levin died of multiple injuries and assault. Chicago police are conducting a homicide investigation.

Ubilla-Delgado and Morales are now facing felony charges of murder and robbery of a victim who is handicapped or over 60 years old, Chicago police said.

Sources told ABC7 the suspects used a social media app to meet the victims.

The ABC7 I-Team has been digging into the background of the men charged and found that Morales had just been arrested earlier this month. Court records show he was charged with a "simple assault" after attempting to lure a 13-year-old girl to his car. He has yet to enter a plea to that charge.

Both suspects will make their first court appearance for the murder charges Saturday.

No other information was available.
