This incident began near 3rd Street and Clarendon Avenue when officers from the Mountain View Precinct got a call of a residential burglary, where a man was trying to jump over the caller's fence from the alley.

The caller said that a man wearing a red cap and grey pants was in the alley smoking drugs and tried to get over her gate.

The first officer on scene went into the alley and saw a man matching the description, wearing a red ball cap and grey pants, just south of the caller's home. Three other officers arrived in the alley from the opposite side.

Officers saw the man with his left hand in his pocket and repeatedly ordered him to slowly show them his hands. The man did not comply. One officer attempted to deploy his 40mm less lethal launcher, which malfunctioned. The man then pulled out a gun and pointed it in the direction of one of the officers.

Two officers fired their duty weapons, striking the man.

After the shooting, other officers arrived and moved in to disarm the suspect and administer life-saving measures. Phoenix Fire personnel arrived and pronounced the man dead.

No officers or other community members were injured as a result of this incident.

The gun used by the suspect was located at his feet, and it was later determined to be a replica firearm.
