A woman died early Saturday after being shot at an Arlington apartment complex, police say.

Officers responded shortly after 2 a.m. to the 2500 block of Forest Point Drive, where they found a woman in her 20s suffering from a gunshot wound.

She was taken to a local hospital, where she died. Her identity has not been released.

Officers had initially detained and interviewed a man who is thought to have a relationship with the woman and was involved in the incident, police said. He has since been released.
