Police are looking for six people in connection with the shooting, including five black males and one white female.

Phoenix police haven’t released too many details, but the Arizona Republic caught up with a neighbor who was across the street “playing dice” about 3:30 this morning, about the time of the shooting.

The neighbor, 29-year-old Lamont Mitchell, says he saw a car roll up to the house before two men got out and started shooting.

Phoenix police will release more information later today. Check back for updates.
