Police said the violence resulted in murder while Barnes was at Westview High School to attend an eighth-grade promotion ceremony involving her daughter, a student at Copper King Elementary School, 10730 W. Campbell Ave., in west Phoenix. During the ceremony, Barnes approached

In the meantime, Ancieto ran back to the school, ordered everyone into a building and told them to shut the door and wait for help, police said. Police asked the court for a high bail for Moton, saying that he has family in Nebraska, has no substantial community ties and was a flight risk.
A preliminary hearing for Moton has been set for June 5 in Superior Court.

“I too, also believe that it’s not the responsibility of the city to have to purchase these lock boxes and I don’t really care for the city to be in the procurement/stocking and installation and having to do inventory, and then have someone keeping track of what we have and what we don’t have,” she said. City officials are in the process of gathering information to put in a packet for residents to access, McClendon said. Staff will monitor residents’ responses and could re-evaluate the situation in the future.

Goodyear man dies on mountain trail
View report
A Goodyear man died while hiking or running on a trail that leads to the top of Humphreys Peak north of Flagstaff, authorities said Tuesday. John Greer, 53, a real-estate broker, collapsed Saturday about a quarter-mile beneath the 12,633-foot summit, said Sgt. Aaron Dick, a spokesman for the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office. Greer’s wife, Mary, told the View that her husband was a frequent runner and hiker, describing him as “an ultra-marathoner and tri-athlete.” Two hikers discovered Greer’s body about 11:15 a.m. Saturday and placed a call on a cell phone seeking help, Dick said. The hikers also performed CPR on Greer for about 30 minutes, but got no response, thus leading them to conclude that he was dead, he added.
In the meantime, the sheriff’s search- and-rescue team was called out Saturday for a body-recovery operation, Dick said. Team members arrived on scene at about 3:30 p.m. for a recovery effort that was hampered by high winds and low temperatures, Dick said. Eventually, the body was carried out on a long line attached to a helicopter.
No foul play is suspected, he said. Autopsy findings are pending from the Coconino County medical examiner. Funeral services also are pending.
