TUCSON Az (Man shot at bus stop DIES) The New gotham city

A man was shot at a bus stop Monday afternoon on Broadway at Alvernon Way, and later died at UA Medical Center-University Campus.
A 911 caller reported shortly after 3 p.m. that a man shot another man at the bus stop at the southwest corner of the intersection, said Sgt. Chris Widmer, a Tucson Police Department spokesman.
Police K-9 units and a police helicopter searched the surrounding neighborhood for the shooter into the evening, but did not find him, Widmer said.

The shooter was described as an African-American man, 6 feet 1 inch tall, with a thin build. He is thought to be 18 to 25 years old, and was wearing black clothing and a blue shirt that he possibly took off while running from the bus stop, Widmer said.
He was last seen running southeast into a neighborhood, Widmer said.
Witnesses said the shooter was nearly struck by a work truck traveling north on Alvernon when he ran in front of the truck while fleeing. Detectives would like to talk to the truck's driver, and any other witnesses who saw the man running away from the bus stop, Widmer said.
Anyone with information is asked to call 911 or 88-CRIME
