A man fatally shot a woman in an intersection in the Shawnee neighborhood Sunday afternoon then turned the gun on himself, Louisville Metro Police officials say.

LMPD spokesman Dwight Mitchell said the man ran to an area "close by" and then shot himself. He was taken to the University of Louisville Hospital in critical condition.

The woman, identified as 50-year-old Dana Hodges on Monday, died at the intersection of North 35th Street and West Main Street from multiple gunshot wounds, according to the Jefferson County Coroner's Office.
