A man died after being shot while at an intersection on Tucson's south side, officials said.
Around 11 p.m. Thursday, an officer was driving south on South Kino Parkway near East Tucson Marketplace when he saw a gray 2003 Honda Accord stopped in the roadway, the Tucson Police Department said Saturday in a news release. The officer found Victor Alfonso Duarte, 27, next to the car with obvious signs of gunshot trauma, police said.
