Fatal Shooting Under Investigation

A man was shot Tuesday night in Fitchburg, Mass.

Authorities are investigating a fatal shooting in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.

The Worcester district attorney's office says a man was shot Tuesday night at Milk and Otis streets. He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.

No name was released and there was no word on arrests.

A witness told The Sentinel & Enterprise that the victim got out of a vehicle and approached another vehicle on foot. The victim talked to someone in the other vehicle for about three minutes before someone opened fire.

The witness said the victim staggered back to his car and drove away, while the shooter sped away in the opposite direction.

Police arrived on the scene and pulled the victim from his vehicle to initiate life-saving efforts.
