PHOENIX — Police are asking for the public's help locating a car they believe is connected to a deadly shooting in west Phoenix Saturday.
Phoenix police say they were called to the area of 43rd Avenue and Buckeye Road just after 5:30 p.m. for reports of a shooting.
When officers arrived, they found a man with at least one gunshot wound.
The man, who has since been identified as 32-year-old Jose Angel Ruiz Leyva, was taken to a hospital where he later died.
Police obtained surveillance footage near the scene and released a photo of a suspect vehicle they were looking for.
Detectives later identified and arrested a suspect, identified as 20-year-old Jorge Ramirez, and booked him into jail to face several charges including second-degree murder.
Phoenix police say suspect Ramirez is the stepson of victim Leyva and the shooting happened after an argument between the two.
If you have any information regarding the shooting, you are asked to call Phoenix police or Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS or 480-TESTIGO for Spanish-speaking. You can remain anonymous and a cash reward is being offered for information that leads to an arrest.
