PCSD Fugitive Investigations Unit (FIU) began searching for the vehicle and suspects and, with the help of several investigative and support units of PCSD, the suspects were located.
“PCSD Homicide Detectives obtained a search warrant for the property and the Pima Regional SWAT Team served the warrant at the indicated location. The suspects barricaded themselves inside the residence, and eventually called 9-1-1 to negotiate a surrender. All three suspects exited the residence and were taken into custody without further incident,” a statement from the sheriff’s department said.
