A man found dead in Northglenn on Wednesday afternoon got into a confrontation with another man who shot him, police said.

The shooting happened at about 1:45 p.m. in the area of Fox Run Parkway and Fox Run Circle, police said.

Witnesses told police that prior to the shooting, the victim was driving a black Cadillac SUV with a Wyoming license plate when he stopped to pickup up a man who was wearing a gray hoodie, police said. The victim pulled a U-turn, stopped and got out of the Cadillac to confront a heavy-set bald man wearing a white t-shirt and dark shorts, who was standing on the sidewalk.

Both men brandished handguns and the victim was shot several times, police said.
