GLENDALE, AZ — Glendale police are investigating a shooting that left one person dead and prompted a lockdown at a hospital on Oct. 19.
Officers were called to the area of 59th Avenue and Thunderbird Road around 10:30 p.m. on Thursday for a shooting. When they arrived, officers found a man with multiple gunshot wounds who died at the scene.
He has since been identified as a 44-year-old man.
Witnesses reportedly saw two people running from the scene and police searched the area. The nearby Thunderbird Hospital was placed on lockdown during the search but the lockdown was lifted after police detained two men to be questioned.
Officers did not say whether those detainees were arrested or if they were determined to have been involved in any way.
Police say they are looking to identify anyone who may have been involved and believe there may be other witnesses to the incident.
Anyone with information is asked to call Glendale Police Department at 623-930-3000 or Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS (or 480-TESTIGO).
