In the early hours of October 20, Chandler Police officers swiftly responded to a report of gunfire at a residence on W Harrison Street. Upon arrival, officers established a secure perimeter around the property after hearing additional shots coming from a nearby backyard. During the response, an officer observed an individual armed with a firearm pointing it toward them, prompting one officer to discharge their service weapon. Fortunately, neither officers nor the suspect sustained any injuries.
Following the escalation, Chandler SWAT was called to assist with securing the scene. Officers subsequently detained three individuals from within the residence. The Chandler Police Department continues to investigate the incident to determine the events leading up to the gunfire.
