OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
On 08/12/2025, members of the U.S. Marshals Service Arizona WANTED Task Force conducted surveillance of a man wanted on a federal probation-violation warrant stemming from an original federal alien-smuggling case. Task-force members located the man at a residence in Chandler and maintained surveillance as he subsequently drove away.
At approximately 1:30 p.m., task-force officers attempted to stop the man's vehicle near Price Road and Innovation Street, south of Germann Road. According to the U.S. Marshals Service, the man attempted to drive away from the officers. Task-force personnel surrounded or blocked the vehicle with unmarked law-enforcement vehicles and deployed multiple less-lethal weapons in an attempt to take him into custody. Aerial footage from the scene subsequently showed a pickup truck blocked by several unmarked law-enforcement vehicles.
The U.S. Marshals Service alleged that during the confrontation the man produced a firearm. Task-force officers then opened fire, striking him. He died from the gunshot wounds at the scene. The Marshals Service did not disclose in its initial public account how many officers fired, how many rounds were fired, which less-lethal weapons had been deployed, or whether the man allegedly pointed or fired the weapon before officers shot him.
The U.S. Marshals Service publicly described the man as a fugitive wanted for violating federal probation, with the underlying federal case involving alien smuggling. Contemporary reporting did not disclose his identity.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation assumed the lead role in investigating the fatal shooting and coordinated its investigation with the East Valley Critical Incident Response Team. The shooting was the 21st reported police shooting in Maricopa County and the 46th in Arizona during 2025 at that point in the year.
