The victim of a Sunday night shooting in central Tucson was identified as Edward A. McGuire, 22. 

Multiple reports of gunfire around 8:30 p.m. led Tucson police to an apartment complex at 1901 N. Wilmot Road, the Tucson Police Department said in a news release Monday. Officers found McGuire lying in the parking lot of the apartment complex with obvious signs of gunshot trauma.

A citizen performed CPR, followed by assistance from police and the Tucson Fire Department, but McGuire was pronounced dead at the scene of the shooting, police said. 

McGuire was shot when the occupants of two vehicles fired at each other in the parking lot, police said. McGuire was a passenger in one of the vehicles. Police did not know whether McGuire knew the occupants of the other vehicle. 

The other vehicle or vehicles fled the scene before police arrived. 

Police ask anyone with information about the incident to call 911 or 88-CRIME and leave an anonymous tip.
