They found the man inside a unit suffering from a gunshot wound, and paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene.

Investigators are not sure what led to the shooting, but they are interviewing several potential witnesses and are canvassing the apartment complex.

Stephens said it’s early in the investigation, but most likely foul play is involved.
