They said the man was connected in a Friday, October 3rd shooting where he pulled a gun on a women.
Detectives said they were investigating a domestic violence case and they wanted to talk with the 30-year-old man. Police said investigators weren't there to serve a warrant or arrest him.

The man was hit by gunfire and taken to a hospital where he died.
Police said they are waiting until the man's family is notified before releasing his name.
They said he was the father of the two children inside the home and they are now with family.
