  On Sunday, Nov. 12, 2023, the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office announced that a homicide had occurred on U.S. Hwy. 60 near Superior (outside of town limits) and that PCSO and Superior Police Department were investigating.

  According to the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office, on Saturday night in the area of Uno Trail and U.S. Hwy. 60, between 50 and 100 people gathered in the desert for an unregulated rave party. Around 9:50 a.m. Sunday, police received a 911 call from witnesses who reported that shots had been fired. Shortly after, police said that the suspect also called 911 to report the shooting.

  With the PCSO Aviation Unit overhead, officers from Superior Police Department, Arizona Department of Public Safety and Pinal County Sheriff’s Office detained the suspect and lead medical staff to the victims.

  One victim was deceased and a second is in stable condition at a Valley hospital in the ICU.

  The initial investigation showed that the suspect had attempted to steal a vehicle before shooting two individuals. All parties involved were attending the party.

  The names of the suspect and victims were not released by police.
