TEMPE, AZ — An 18-year-old woman was shot and killed during an apparent argument in a vehicle in Tempe Thursday night.

The incident occurred near Interstate 10 and Broadway Road around 8:15 p.m.

Officials say a man and woman were arguing inside a vehicle when the man shot the woman multiple times, killing her.

The man, only said to be a 20-year-old, stepped out of the vehicle and turned the gun on himself, according to witnesses. He is now being treated at a hospital.
