Police say a man who fired at a minivan in Bronx was later hit by the vehicle and killed.

The deadly confrontation happened at about 3:30 a.m. Sunday in the Morris Heights section of Bronx.

Police say a romantic rivalry may have triggered the violence.

They say a 43-year-old man saw his former girlfriend in the minivan with another man and began firing a gun.

The driver took off but later encountered the gunman and ran him down.

The 25-year-old gunman was pronounced dead at Bronx Lebanon Hospital. His name was not immediately released.

Police are questioning the driver.
