Tampa Police homicide detectives are investigating a shooting that occurred early Sunday morning, leaving a young woman dead, and a young man with life threatening injuries.

Police were called to Nicks Gyros at 3501 East Hillsborough Avenue at 3:30 a.m. on a report of a shooting.

Police said a man approached the vehicle in the restaurant’s parking lot and fired into the driver’s side window, severely wounding Jynassis Ellis, 26. The driver, Malik Majied, 21, was also shot, but managed to drive one block to 34th Street and East Hillsborough where an off-duty officer was getting gas. He immediately began CPR on Ellis, and called for backup and an ambulance. Ellis was later pronounced dead at the scene.

Majied was hospitalized and is reported to be in stable condition.

Detectives have determined the shooting was not a random act of violence, and they are asking anyone with information about the shooting to call (813) 231-6130.

The suspect is described as a Black male, 6 feet tall, wearing a baseball cap and a scarf around his face.

A source has reported that this shooting, and a shooting near 34th Street are connected to an incident that occurred at Ben T. Davis Beach a week ago. Police have not been able to substantiate these allegations.
