PHOENIX (AP) - A woman killed in a Phoenix drive-by shooting has been identified.

A family member confirmed that 51-year-old Sandra Johnson died from gunshot wounds Friday at a nearby hospital.

Allen Johnson, Sandra's brother, told KSAZ-TV that his sister didn't even live at the home and was just visiting.

Authorities on Saturday continued their search for a dark green Ford Expedition. Police say four men in the vehicle pulled up to the home Friday afternoon when someone fired multiple rounds.

Police say three others, whose names have not been released, were wounded in the shooting.

Phoenix police Sgt. Steve Martos says the four victims were gathered in the home's front yard just a few feet from the road.
