PHILADELPHIA - Homicide detectives have made an arrest in the deadly shooting of a local mother gunned down in a parked car in Philadelphia earlier this week, police say.
Tina Arroyo, 32, was gunned down on Monday evening while sitting in the driver's seat of a Honda Civic parked on the 500 block of East Louden Street, according to police.
"She pulled up on this scene and within moments another vehicle pulls up and shoots her," Sgt. Eric Gripp said. "How quickly it happened and the callousness of all of it is deeply troubling."
The shooting took place across the street from a crowded park, officials say.
