Tucson police have released the name of the man found Friday shot to death on a south-side street.

The body of Edward Murphy, 29, was found just before 3 p.m., lying in the roadway at the intersection of East 32nd Street and South Fremont Avenue in a neighborhood just east of South Kino Parkway, Officer Brandon Tatum, a spokesman for the Tucson Police Department, said in a news release.

Witnesses said Murphy had been shot multiple times by a man who drove off in a sedan, but they could not provide police with a description of the car.

Anyone with information about the shooting should call 911 or 88-CRIME.
