GILBERT, AZ — Gilbert mayoral and councilmember candidates answered questions from the community Friday night ahead of the primary election.

Safety has been top of mind for many parents after the death of 16-year-old Preston Lord and other teen violence incidents that have been brought to light after the teen's death.
