A man sitting in car in the driveway of an Akron home was fatally shot Tuesday evening, according to a news release from the Akron Police Department.

Officers responded to the 800 block of Haynes Street around 6 p.m. Upon arrival, they found a 32-year-old man unresponsive in the car.

The man was transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

A resident several hundred feet away in the 400 block of W. Bartges Street reported their home was hit by bullets. A nearby parked car was also hit.

No arrests have been made.
