An “associate” of the man tried to save him, but first responders arrived on scene in the 1000-block of Pineridge Drive to find him dead, police said.

“We are in the very preliminary stages of the investigation and will continue to canvass the area for witnesses and video surveillance,” Insp. Brent Novakoski said in the release.

“It is far too early to make any concrete determinations but early indications are that this was not a random shooting.”
