AUSTIN (Talk1370.com) -- Police are investigating an apparent shooting on the city's northeast side early Monday morning as a suspicious death.

Austin Police were called to the eastbound frontage road of U.S. 290 and Springdale Road just before 1:45 a.m. Monday.


According to APD, a call for service came from the 7300 block of Grand Canyon Drive a few minutes earlier. The victim's girlfriend is believed to have placed that call as well as a later call from the Springdale Road location.

The male victim was pronounced deceased on the scene, police said.

Based on the early investigation, it appears both the victim and his girlfriend are out of town. Police say there does not appear to be a known threat to the public, and no details on a suspect have been released.
