A shooting early Tuesday in Tacoma has left one person dead and another wounded.

Police responded to a report of shots fired about 1 a.m. in a church parking lot and found a car against a fence with five people inside.

One victim inside the car was dead with a gunshot wound to his head and the other victim was wounded. Tacoma police spokesman Mark Fulghum said that woman was shot in the back and was taken to the hospital where they expect her to be okay.

Three other people were questioned.

"At this point we believe we have the shooter now," Fulghum said. "It's matter of getting all the information and putting the whole situation together."
