Hartford, Conn./WTIC Radio - One person is dead and another is in the hospital following a shooting Wednesday night in Hartford.

Just after 7:00 p.m., officers were dispatched to the area of 149 Magnolia Street to investigate a ShotSpotter notification.


Upon arrival, police found Diana Tirado, 46, of New Britain unresponsive in the passenger seat of a parked vehicle.

She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Officers located a second victim on the sidewalk.

The female in her 30s was rushed to an area hospital for treatment of a gunshot wound and is now in stable condition.

Later Thursday, the suspect in the shootings was found barricaded in a hotel room in Holyoke, Massachusetts.
