Summary

  • Officers responding to a call near 75th Ave and Sells Dr around 7:15 p.m. Wednesday found a woman holding a handgun, Phoenix police Sgt. Chris Berrelleza told reporters at the scene. After officers made contact with her, two of them fired, he said.

Timeline

The condition of the woman is unknown.

Roads around the scene were still closed to drivers and residents early Thursday, according to AZFamily.

Because officers fired, the Arizona DPS Major Incident Division is taking over the investigation, Berrelleza told Telemundo Arizona.

A neighbor's video shared with AZFamily appears to show officers telling the woman to drop the weapon before shots are heard. Two neighbors told ABC15 they heard about four shots.

The woman was taken to a hospital with gunshot wounds. Police have not released her name or condition. No officers were hurt, and police say a gun was recovered at the scene, per AZFamily.
