AZ: Domestic Defense, 1 man Killed

Officers at the scene gathered witnesses and detained a possible suspect, who was identified as a 23-year-old male. Detectives from TPD’s Homicide Unit responded to the scene and took over the investigation. Detectives learned that the male victim had been in a verbal altercation with a female, who he had previously been in a relationship with. The male victim showed up to her residence and shortly after, several other people, including the 23-year-old arrived as well. The male proceeded to engage them all in a verbal altercation, to include making threats to them and implying he had a firearm. Statements and evidence at the scene indicated that the male instigated the confrontation. All parties left the area in vehicles and the male victim followed after them. While they were mobile, the male continued to make threats and swerved his vehicle towards them through the streets of Midtown Tucson. The involved parties were able to get away from the male near the 2500 block of E. 21st Street. The male soon arrived in his truck and another altercation ensued. The male, identified as 30-year-old Rudy Ochoa, approached the 23-year-old and his female acquaintance as they sat in their vehicle. Mr. Ochoa continued the confrontation and was subsequently shot.
