A grey pickup truck then pulled up and someone inside started shooting at them.

A 30-year-old man died at the scene.

The second victim, a 23-year-old man, was shot in the back. He's in critical condition.


The Durango is missing, authorities say.

Police are working to get access to security video.

The shooter got away, but their vehicle may have a window shot out.
