Denver police say an Uber driver who fatally shot a passenger has been arrested.
Police say 29-year-old Michael Hancock was arrested Friday on suspicion of first-degree murder in the shooting on an interstate.
Authorities say Hancock shot a man in a car shortly before 3 a.m. after some kind of altercation, and the man later died at a hospital. Police haven’t released any other details about what led up to the shooting.

Hancock hasn’t been charged, and it’s not clear if he has a lawyer.
It will be up to prosecutors to decide whether or not to pursue a murder charge or any other criminal charges against him.
Uber says it’s “deeply troubled” by the fatal shooting. The ride-hailing company says in a statement Friday that its thoughts are with the families of all those involved and that it will continue to work closely with police.
Police are investigating what led up to the shooting and whether or not the man killed was armed.
