PHOENIX (AP) - One of two men wounded in a drive-by shooting in Phoenix has died.

Phoenix police say an unidentified man drove up and fired shots at another car and a man outside that vehicle around 3 a.m. Friday.

When officers arrived, one man was found with multiple gunshot wounds and later died at a Phoenix hospital. Police have identified that victim as 43-year-old Michael Anthony Thomas.

A 20-year-old man also suffered gunshot wounds, but police say he's expected to survive. His name hasn't been released yet.

A witness told police there was no prior altercation before the shooting.

Police say they haven't located or identified any suspects in the case yet and the shooting remains under investigation.
