FALL RIVER, MASS. (WHDH) - A Fall River man is set to be arraigned on a murder charge in connection with the fatal shooting of a woman at a car wash in that city on Monday afternoon, officials said

Officers responding to a reported shooting at the Globe Car Wash on Broadway around 12:30 p.m. found Jessenia Simmons, 45, of New Bedford, dead in one of the car wash bays, according to the Bristol District Attorney’s Office.

Angelo O. Leo, 33, initially fled from the scene of the shooting but turned himself in to police in Tiverton, Rhode Island, about a half-hour later, officials said.

If he waives rendition, Leo could be transported to Fall River District Court for arraignment Tuesday.
