Authorities say the victim, Matthew Webb, 22,  of Colorado Springs, was found in the driver's seat of a car on Monday. The Honda crashed near a convenience store about a half-mile from where officers say Webb was probably shot in the Copper Chase Apartments complex.

The 2004 graduate of Rampart High School in Colorado Springs was pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy revealed Webb died from a single gunshot wound.

Police have not released any information about the suspectbecause he's a juvenile.
