A man was shot to death Tuesday afternoon at the Black Angus Inn, police said.

Police say they received a report of a shooting at the hotel, at the corner of Gambell Street and 15th Avenue in Fairview, at about 3:15 p.m. Tuesday. When officers responded, they found a man who had been shot in the upper body, according to an online police alert.

The shooting happened inside the hotel, police said.

The man died shortly after arriving at a hospital, police later said. The shooting victim had not been identified early Tuesday evening.

No arrests had been made in the shooting, a police spokeswoman said. One person was taken into custody on an unrelated warrant, and “as of now it does not appear they are involved with the shooting,” she said.
