Police said three masked suspects who were armed with long guns were chasing a 36-year-old woman in her vehicle. The suspects were traveling in a separate vehicle when they fired gunshots in her direction.

Although the woman was uninjured, the gunfire struck the man, who was not directly involved in the incident. Authorities said it’s unclear why the suspects were targeting the woman.

The suspects then fled the scene and police are still working to track them down.

EMS attempted lifesaving efforts on the man who was injured by the gunfire; however, he died at the scene.
