DALLAS — Four people were shot, and one of the victims died, in a shooting in Northwest Dallas early Sunday, police said. 

According to the Dallas Police Department, officers responded to a shooting call in the 3600 block of Cortez Drive, just north of Love Field, at about 3 a.m.

Police said investigators believe four people got into a fight at an event at the location. The fight spilled into an alley and escalated when at least two of them took out handguns and shot at each other.

Officers say 58-year-old Gustavo Monreal shot the three victims and one of the victims shot him back. He's now in critical condition at a local hospital.

Police identified 21-year-old David Lemus as the victim that died at the scene. They also say a 17 and 18-year-old were treated for their injuries and have since been released from the hospital. 

Monreal is currently charged with murder and aggravated assault, according to Dallas police. They say more charges may be filed as the investigation continues.
