Phoenix's Maryvale neighborhood, where a serial killer is on the loose, has suffered another shooting death. Police say a man found dead outside a home Thursday night was likely shot a short distance away then made it to the house and collapsed around 10pm, reports KPHO. Police aren't sure where exactly the man was shot, but they did find shell casings. It's also not clear if the murder is linked to Phoenix's serial shooter, accused of killing seven people and injuring two others since March, per CBS News. (Maryvale has become "a ghost town.")
