GLENDALE, AZ — Glendale police have identified more information that may help lead to the arrest of the person who shot and killed a man outside Westgate Entertainment District.

Officers were called to the area near 91st and Glendale avenues around 7:10 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 29.

Authorities say the victim, Tyler Wilson, 31, was transported to the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds where he later died.

A preliminary investigation showed Wilson was a passenger in a vehicle when he got into an argument with a driver of a silver sedan. The two were reportedly arguing over a parking spot, causing the driver to open fire as Wilson exited his vehicle to continue the verbal altercation.

The vehicle then fled south on 91st Avenue.

Glendale officials now say they are looking for a four-door, late-model Chevrolet Cruze. They initially only identified the vehicle that was seen leaving the area as a silver sedan.

If you have any information on this vehicle, please call Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS/480-TESTIGO or Glendale police at 623-930-3000.
