PHOENIX -
A man was shot in the chest while driving away from a strip club early Saturday morning.

Gunfire broke out at the Pink Rhino, near Van Buren and 36th Street, around 3:40 a.m.

A 21-year-old man was driving in a vehicle with a 25-year-old passenger sitting in the front seat.

As they were leaving the parking lot, a suspect approached the passenger side of the vehicle and started yelling at the men inside.

Police say at some point, the suspect shot the 21-year-old passenger.

The man was taken to a hospital with a non-life threatening injury and is expected to be okay.

It's not clear what led up to the shooting.

The suspect is only described as a black male. He hasn't been located.

    Repeal the 2nd Amendment and confiscate and destroy all civilian possessed guns and guns from retailers that sell them without proper precautions, PARTICULARLY gun shows. Outlaw the NRA.

    We used to have rule in Phoenix: "Never be out after midnight on a street named after a President". If you been there, you know those streets are in the nasty part of town. And bad presidents like Van Buren are the worse streets.

    Verybigdawg- That's interesting! On the east coast, I have been told several times that a street named Martin Luther King is very dangerous!

    I have been to that club. The area is sketchy as previously stated. Van buren is known for street walkers.
