A suspect wanted in connection to a deadly San Jose shooting was arrested Friday morning while trying to flee the country, officials said.

The shooting, which was reported Thursday night at a strip mall on the 1100 block of East William Street, left a woman dead and a man hospitalized. It marked San Jose's 27th homicide this year.

Surveillance video shows a man getting out of a car, pulling a gun and shooting two people.

Police have not identified the shooter, but friends of the deceased victim tell NBC Bay Area the suspect was her ex-boyfriend. The suspect was arrested in San Ysidro near the Mexican border, police said. Detectives will be transporting the suspect back to San Jose.
