When officers arrived, they found a man suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. He was transported to the hospital in critical condition, where he was pronounced dead. <\/p>\n<p>After speaking with witnesses, officers learned that the man was involved in a verbal and physical argument with a woman and allegedly dragged her down the street while being armed with a machete. <\/p>\n<p>Witnesses told police that the woman was screaming for help, and one neighbor came outside to tell the man to stop. <\/p>\n<p>Police said the man who was allegedly dragging the woman then approached that neighbor while he was still armed with the machete, and the neighbor shot him at least once. <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s when witnesses called 911, and the neighbor stayed at the scene to be interviewed by homicide detectives, officials confirmed. <\/p>\n<p>At this time, no arrest has been made, and the names of those involved have not been released. <\/p>\n<p>This is a developing story.
