PHOENIX — An armed man was shot and killed by Phoenix police officers in west Phoenix near 43rd Avenue and Encanto Boulevard Sunday night.
Officials say the fire department received a medical call and the police department received a shooting call in the same area.
When crews responded, they found a woman with a gunshot wound.
Officers attempted to arrest a man at the scene and he allegedly pulled out a gun from his waistband. Officials say there was a struggle between the man and officers and that is when the officer-involved shooting happened.
Body camera video released by Phoenix police on March 21 shows the man holding the weapon as officers struggle with him.
That man, 42-year-old James Saucedo, died at the scene.
The woman was taken to the hospital, though her current condition is not known.
Officials do not currently know if there is any connection between Saucedo and the woman.
No officers were seriously injured in this incident.
This incident remains under investigation.
This is the second police-involved shooting in two days. On Saturday, police shot at an alleged shoplifter near 35th and Southern avenues who pointed a gun at an employee and police officer. That man was not injured.
