AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) - Avondale police say a man who apparently shot himself following the fatal shooting of a woman at the store where she worked has himself died.
Police say 27-year-old Henry Cota Jr. died late Tuesday after being hospitalized after the incident Monday.
Police said previously that Cota had a history of domestic violence with 26-year-old Melissa Mendez, who was an employee of the Best Buy store where she was shot.
According to police, shooting occurred both inside and outside the store.
Officer Jaret Redfearn says police continue to investigate but that information obtained so far suggests that Cota’s gunshot wound was self-inflicted.
