Tucson police detectives are investigating a homicide near Grant Road and Country Club Road.Β 

Tucson police said they are investigating a north-side homicide.

Officers responded to reports of gunshots about 3:30 a.m. Saturday near East Grant Road and North Loretta Drive, between North Country Club Road and North Treat Avenue, said Sgt. Pete Dugan, a spokesman for the Tucson Police Department.

When they arrived, officers found Abdullahi Mohamed Abdullahi, 19, with obvious signs of gunshot trauma. He was pronounced dead on scene.

Dugan said there was a house party in the 2400 block of Loretta Drive. After shots were fired, people left the scene, he said.

Detectives have spoken with several witnesses but are asking anyone else with information to call 88-CRIME, an anonymous tipster line.

This is an ongoing investigation.Β
