Four shot, one fatally, in South Phoenix

Phoenix police are investigating a drive-by shooting in South Phoenix. One person is dead and three others are wounded. This is the second shooting with multiple victims in Phoenix in two days.

Investigators say four people were shot outside a home near 14th Street & Roeser around 2:30 p.m. Friday. Police say a dark green vehicle pulled up outside the home and fired several shots at the victims. Three women and a man were wounded. One of the victims died.

The spokesman says it’s unclear if this was a gang-related shooting. Police are searching for several suspects.

On Wednesday a man shot and killed two people and wounded another in a central Phoenix office complex. That suspect was later found dead in Mesa of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
