PHOENIX (AP) - Phoenix police say a man is dead after being shot in the parking lot of a strip club after being involved in an altercation inside the club early Saturday morning.

Detective Luis A. Samudio said a 22-year-old man shot 23-year-old Kirk Anthony Kariker after Kariker allegedly got a gun from his vehicle and appointed it several people.

The identity of the man who shot Kariker wasn't released.

Samudio said the man remained at the scene and cooperated with investigators.
