The release says the man who died came to the intersection to confront involved parties. Witnesses told police and apparent video surveillance showed, during that confrontation, the man pointed a gun at the other(s). Someone then shot the man. After, they began performing CPR on him, but he died at the scene, according to police.

It’s not clear if the other people involved shot the man with his own gun or there was a second gun. No word on how old the man who died was or what the confrontation was about. The investigation is ongoing, according to police.
