| Critical Incident Briefing: Officer-involved Shooting Near 39th Avenue and Thunderbird Road | https://www.phoenix.gov/newsroom/police/1950 | Police | | 6/14/2021 4:45:00 PM | https://www.phoenix.gov/newssite/Lists/NewsArticle/Attachments/1950/Critical Incident Briefing Graphic Twitter.png | https://youtu.be/J8M-0r6lBHs | Critical Incident Briefing: Officer-involved Shooting Near 39th Avenue and Thunderbird Road | <div class="ExternalClass2CAE20D1C90B4948814488F4C82F0630"><html>
<p></p><p><strong>WARNING: The attached video may contain strong language as well as graphic images which may be disturbing to some people. Viewer discretion is advised.</strong><br> <br>The Phoenix Police Department released a Critical Incident Briefing (CIB) video that includes audio, visuals and information related to an officer-involved shooting (OIS) which occurred on May 30<sup>th</sup>, 2021, in the area of 39<sup>th</sup> Avenue and Thunderbird Road.</p><p>This incident started at approximately 5:08 p.m. when officers responded to a report of a violation of an order of protection in the area of 39<sup>th</sup> Avenue and Wood Drive. The caller, a teenager, reported their father had been served with an order of protection two weeks earlier, and was not allowed to be on the property. The teenager said he was currently near the front door.</p><p>When the first officer arrived at the residence, he immediately encountered the suspect, later identified as 42-year-old Adan Carlos. Carlos was armed with a handgun and pointed the weapon at the first arriving officer as the officer was exiting his car. The officer and Carlos exchanged gunfire, and Carlos was struck. </p><p>The second officer arrived as the officer-involved shooting was occurring. As the officer approached Carlos, he ordered him to get away from the gun, and Carlos slid the gun away. The officers were then able to approach Carlos and take him into custody</p><p>Once officers had Carlos detained, the began providing first aid. Phoenix Fire personnel arrived and transported him to nearby hospital for treatment. </p><p>Carlos fired six rounds during the officer involved shooting. The firearm used by Carlos was recovered at the scene, and an extra magazine for the handgun was located in his pocket.</p><p>One of the rounds fired by Carlos entered an occupied residence approximately ½ mile away. No one at that residence was injured.</p><p>Carlos remains hospitalized for his injuries.</p><p>During the investigation, it was learned that a vehicle registered to Carlos was found earlier in the day, burned at a nearby location. It was also learned that Carlos was involved in an armed robbery a few hours before this incident, where he forced someone at gunpoint to drive him around looking for someone. Carlos was eventually dropped off near the residence where the shooting occurred, and let the person drive away. </p><p>The officer involved in this incident is assigned to the Cactus Park Precinct of the Patrol Division. He 26 years old and has 2 years of service.</p><p>There were no injuries to officers or any other community members.<br></p><p>Conclusions about whether the actions of the officers are consistent with department policy and the law will not be made until all facts are known and the investigation is complete. An internal investigation by the Professional Standard Bureau is currently underway, in addition to a criminal investigation. Once the criminal investigation is complete it will then be reviewed by the Maricopa County Attorney's Office.</p><p><span style="background-color:window;color:windowtext;font-size:10pt;">Public records law required redaction of certain personal identifying information before video is released publicly. This is why you may see some parts of Body Worn Camera (BWC) blurred or covered with a black box. Redacted video is released to local media in conjunction with the release of this Critical Incident Briefing for independent review and publication. Complete, unedited versions of the BWC are released to attorneys and the courts as evidence in a criminal case.</span></p>

| Before the Badge: Officer Luis Samudio, Flight Attendant | https://www.phoenix.gov/newsroom/police/1949 | Police | | 6/13/2021 10:00:00 PM | | https://youtu.be/3feyVK3Fnu4 | Before the Badge: Officer Luis Samudio, Flight Attendant | <div class="ExternalClass1FE1F7009AA449CC848C27F334FAD59A"><html>
<p>
<em>Phoenix Police officers come from many different backgrounds, including different careers. The department's video series, ‘</em><a target="_blank" href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFNuct3MvVGa0aB67cIDS6PG4dPM9eNvE"><em>Before the Badge</em></a><em>,’ profiles some of those careers, and the diversity they bring to the department today.</em></p>
<p>
Officer Luis Samudio is part of the recruitment divison of the Phoenix Police Department's Employment Services Bureau. This division is dedicated to recruiting top talent for the future of Phoenix Police.
</p>
<p>"We want to recruit the ideal candidate," Officer Samudio said. "[A] qualified applicant that's going to represent the agency really well, along with the City of Phoenix, and then our leaders. It is a noble position. It's gotta be coming from the heart, from the mind, to want to do this type of career."</p>
<p>Day to day, Officer Samudio's job includes emails and calls with potential candidates, and then lots of community outreach—schools, job fairs, hiking trails, and gyms. Luckily for Luis, this kind of work, especially knowing how to talk to people, is something he's done in a job before.</p>
<p>"I was a flight attendant for America West Airlines," Officer Samudio explained. </p>
<p>Prior to serving the City of Phoenix, Officer Samudio was serving passengers on planes. For about five years he worked as both a flight attendant and a recruiter for America West. In addition to the perks of getting to travel all over, he said he learned some invaluable skills. </p>
<p>"I think that's probably the area where I started recognizing, or knowing, the importance of customer service in dealing with people," Officer Samudio said. "The good and the bad."</p>
<p>Around this same time, he also started a family. That's when he decided to look for work closer to home. Officer Samudio said he is who he is today because of where he comes from and what he did before the badge. </p>
<p>"What that taught me is how to be patient, sympathetic, empathetic to the people, and providing the service that I can as representing that agency or that company at the time," Officer Samudio said of his flight attendant career. "And that certainly has carried on to where I am at today."</p>
<p>Officer Samudio added that he does not take lightly the responsibility he now holds in helping find the next wave of people to wear this badge. </p>
<p>"Career experiences that others have had, or education, family backgrounds, is certainly important and critical in how we're going to deliver service to the community," he explained. "The fact that I have such a vast background, and bringing it to maybe work here, I think I'm a lot more sensitive to understanding where we're at today." <br></p>
