Two separate shootings in Phoenix, one on the west side and one in the central area of the city, left two men dead Saturday evening.

Just after 6:30 p.m., Phoenix police officers responded to a report of a shooting in central Phoenix, near 12th Street and Highland Avenue.

Once officers arrived, they found a man with gunshot wounds. The victim was identified as 24-year-old Aaron Duwan Frazier Jr. He died at a local hospital.

Early information indicated a man was fueling up his vehicle at the gas station when Frazier approached him with a gun and attempted to rob him. The man went back to his vehicle grabbed a gun and shot Frazier, according to police.

The man called police to report the incident. Detectives conducted interviews and collected evidence at the scene. The man was not booked into jail. The case will be reviewed further for any possible charges.

Later in the evening, in west Phoenix, another shooting occurred.

Just after 8 p.m., officers responded to a call claiming a shooting occurred near 44th and Whitton avenues.

When police arrived, they discovered a man with gunshot wounds. He was transported to a hospital and was later pronounced dead.

Early information indicated a man attempted to enter a home when a woman inside called a family member to come help. The family member arrived and confronted the victim in front of the residence, police said.

Thanks again, Gun Bunny. More defensive firearms use, which doesn’t occur according to some.

I see the bad guys in AZ haven’t learned anything since Wyatt Earp’s day.

It may just be Curmudgeon Syndrome, but Henry has been leaving a bad taste in my mouth from all of it’s “we are doing so much good for fill in the blank by giving so much money to them!”

Just not a big fan of the “Look at me! I’m such a good person” approach.

Even if their products are good products.
YMMV

A double shot of my DRT’s Love. Apologies to Dick Holler and The Holidays (among others) “victim”(?!?) *sigh* The air in AZ is a little cleaner today.

I’ve voted against more politicians than I’ve voted for politicians.

You don’t have to ax me if I want that Henry. May not do too much on shoring up the North Wall, but would make a nice “under the pillow” hall sweeper. .410 with 00 buck? Take the brass right out of a ne’er do well. Fire from the hip artillery.
