CLARKSDALE, Miss. (AP) - A woman is dead and a man hospitalized after a shooting in the Mississippi Delta.

Clarksdale police tell WHBQ-TV that 38-year-old Lakisha McGee was visiting her cousin Monday when a masked man kicked in a door, broke into the house and began shooting.

Lakisha McGee died from her injuries before she could be taken to a hospital. Her cousin, 29-year-old Jeremy McGee, ran out the back door and down an alley. Neighbor Gary Kelly found Jeremy McGee shot in a driveway. McGee, hit five times, remains hospitalized Wednesday in serious condition at Regional One Health in Memphis, Tennessee.
