A man was shot to death yesterday at a Logan Heights apartment complex near Interstate 15, a killing that left the courtyard ringed with crime-scene tape and neighbors on edge as homicide detectives moved in. Officers responding to reports of gunfire found an adult male suffering from gunshot wounds, and he was pronounced dead at the complex. Authorities have released little information about the victim or any possible suspects as the investigation gets underway.
According to the San Diego Police Dispatch Online, the Central Division logged a "MURDER" call at 8:45 PM in the 3100 block of Webster Avenue. As reported by ABC 10News, officers found the man at an apartment complex and he was declared dead at the scene.
