PHOENIX — An investigation is underway after a man was fatally shot while he was driving through an intersection in Phoenix, authorities said.

Officers responded to 48th Street and McDowell Road around 2 a.m. and found 28-year-old Tyler Langlais with at least one gunshot wound, the Phoenix Police Department said.

Langlais was taken to a hospital, where he later died from his injuries.

Road rage is not believed to be a factor in the shooting, police said.

No additional information was available.
