-August 01, 2023.

This incident occurred in a north Phoenix neighborhood near 35th Avenue and Bell Road after Phoenix Police received an emergency call of a subject waving a gun.

The caller indicated a male was on a residential street waiving a gun wearing a white shirt and gray pants.

Additional information was learned that the suspect had also been intimidating neighbors with the gun and may have been the subject of an emergency 911 call the day before for similar activity.

As the officers drove to the area, they learned that the suspect was accompanied by another man.

When the first two officers arrived , they saw the two men sitting on a short landscaping wall.

As the marked patrol Tahoe stopped in the road, one of the men began removing a handgun from his waist band as he ran in the direction of the passenger officer, who had just gotten out of the Tahoe.

The man continued to run in the direction of the officer while holding the handgun.

It was at this time the officer involved shooting took place.

Following the shooting, officers rendered aid to the man before Phoenix Fire personnel took him to the hospital where he was treated for serious injuries.

The handgun the man was holding was recovered by patrol officers and placed in a patrol Tahoe for safe keeping.

The officer involved in this incident is assigned to the Cactus Park Precinct and has about four years of service with the department.

Conclusions about whether the actions of the officers are consistent with department policy and the law will not be made until all facts are known and the investigation is complete. An internal investigation by the Professional Standard Bureau is currently underway, in addition to a criminal investigation. Once the criminal investigation is complete it will then be reviewed by the Maricopa County Attorney's Office.
