Detectives used surveillance footage to identify the vehicle involved as a dark-colored Kia Optima, which was later located and towed, the report said.
Investigators also found Bradley, who was brought in for an interview and gave a full confession, the report said.
The report didn't give a possible motive for the killing.
When police searched Bradley's car they found a box of ammunition inside, the report said.
Bradley has been a convicted felon since February 2017 from a case involving battery on a law enforcement officer, the report said.
Bradley was booked into jail, and appeared in court Wednesday where he was ordered held without bond and appointed a public defender.
