Man killed in Scottsdale shooting, another man arrested
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - The Scottsdale Police Department is investigating a shooting Tuesday afternoon that killed a man and landed another one in handcuffs.
What we know:
The May 20 shooting happened around 4:40 p.m. near Miller and McDowell roads.
Police say 45-year-old Michael Bradford was shot in the upper torso and died from his injuries.
The suspect was later identified by Scottsdale Police as 48-year-old Sean Quinn.
"This is an isolated incident with no threat to the surrounding community," the Scottsdale Police Department said.
Police say Quinn was placed under arrest with the assistance of a K9 unit.
What they're saying:
"Officers arrived and a man was transported to the hospital. Sadly, he has died from his injuries. One man was taken into custody, and he too was transported to the hospital," Scottsdale Police Sgt. Allison Sempsis said, adding that he was not injured in the shooting.
A pile of clothes left on the street was photographed by police, and neighbors were stopped by yellow tape as crime scene specialists processed the scene.
"I was coming back from lunch thinking I'm going to come home and get ready, but no. I pulled up, there was a bunch of cops two doors down. This isn't the first time it's happened. So, I was not too shocked, but this is the first time I've seen it get this bad," Jazmyn Lopez, a neighbor, said.
She says in the past she saw SWAT and police at the same house where this shooting happened.
"We will be getting a search warrant into the home and try to figure out what information they can," Sgt. Sempsis said.
