Death In A Stoeln Vehicle

"Flagstaff, AZ - According to the Flagstaff Police on Sunday shortly before 11:20am, the Flagstaff Police Department received a call from the On-Star company reporting a stolen vehicle in Flagstaff.

"Officers responded to the location of the car and attempted to stop the vehicle. The suspect vehicle fled and accelerated to unsafe speeds violating traffic laws, so officers terminated their pursuit in accordance with departmental pursuit policies.

"At about the same time, a citizen reported the vehicle in their neighborhood and observed one female and one male running from the car with a handgun. Officers surrounded the area and found the suspects in the wooded area behind McCoy Motors.

"As officers began giving the suspect’s commands to take them into custody the male suspect shot the female suspect and then himself. The male was pronounced deceased at the scene and the female was transported to Flagstaff Medical Center with severe injuries.

"It was later learned the suspects carjacked the car in New Mexico and dropped off the kidnap victim in Winslow prior to coming to Flagstaff."
