An Erie man was fatally shot Tuesday evening in what police have described as a targeted attack within the 1100 block of 11th Street.<\/p>\n
According to the Erie Police Department, the shooting occurred at approximately 7:20 p.m. on July 7 while the victim was sitting inside his vehicle outside the club.<\/p>\n
The suspect approached the vehicle and fired multiple rounds through the front windshield. The victim then accelerated his vehicle toward the suspect and the suspect’s vehicle, resulting in a collision. Police stated that the suspect then fired several additional rounds into the vehicle.<\/p>\n
Despite suffering multiple gunshot wounds, the victim managed to drive roughly one block away before coming to a stop near East 10th Street and Brandes Avenue. Emergency responders arrived at the scene; the victim suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the torso and was pronounced dead a short time later.<\/p>\n
Authorities have classified the shooting as a targeted incident and said the victim and suspect knew each other prior to the attack.<\/p>\n
The investigation remains ongoing. Police currently have one individual in custody but are continuing to search for additional persons of interest who may have been involved in the incident.<\/p>\n
Detectives have recovered a large amount of surveillance footage from the area, including recordings from several nearby cameras. Numerous witnesses were also present at the scene.<\/p>\n
