Officers arriving on scene found Washington with gunshot wounds; he was taken to UAB Hospital and later pronounced dead. Police reported the argument escalated into a physical altercation, after which the other man produced a firearm and shot Washington, then may have fired additional rounds while standing over him before fleeing on foot.
