Officers were called to the area around 4 a.m. for reports of a shooting. When they arrived, they found three people with gunshot wounds.

Police say Adrian Ruiz entered an apartment through a broken window. He was later confronted by 22-year-old Schon Rhode and "both parties exchanged gunfire," Tempe police said.

All three were taken to a hospital, where Ruiz later died.

Officials say Rhode and 21-year-old Gavin Van Tassel suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say everyone believed to be involved in the incident is accounted for, and there are no outstanding suspects.
