A 21-year-old man was killed in a shooting Wednesday night on Tucson's south side, police said.

Officers found Martin Jesus Echeverria-Garcia wounded with gunshots about 11:20 p.m. in the 5200 block of South Placita Brisa Grande, near East Irvington Road and South Campbell Avenue, Sgt. Pete Dugan said in a news release. He died at the hospital.

A witness told police Echeverria-Garcia was with another man just before the shooting.

Police are looking for a gold four-door sedan β€” possibly a Toyota Camry β€” that was seen leaving the area, Dugan said. Police believe the shooting might have occurred in a different location than where Echeverria-Garcia was found.

Anyone with information can call 911 or 88-CRIME.
