One unidentified man was killed during a shooting at the local Pep Boys.

On Dec. 6, around 11:30 am, Gallup Police Officers were dispatched to Pep Boys, 702 U.S. Hwy. 491, in reference to shots fired.

Patrol officers arrived on scene and found a man who had died from multiple gunshot wounds. The identity of the victim was still unknown at press time.

A video from Pep Boys allegedly showed a vehicle that came to the area with multiple individuals that entered the ditch area east of the Flame of Fire church before shots were heard.

The vehicle is possibly a Honda Ridgeline, and it possibly has star pattern rims and may be green or grayish in color, according to a post on the GPD’s Facebook page.
