Officers were called at 4:51 p.m. and asked to check on the welfare of a possibly suicidal man with a gun on Feller Avenue in the city's east foothills, according to a police source.

But authorities provided no details about the circumstances that led to the fatal shooting.

Distraught relatives were notified by police of the death at about 7:30 p.m. Family members identified the victim as Anthony Nunez, 18.
