Tiffany Sutton, the woman who was accused of chasing her boyfriend around a Tempe apartment with a pickax in order to drink his blood, has been sentenced to ten years in prison.

She was arrested the night before Valentine’s day after she tied up her lover and attacked him with a knife. The victim had apparently signed a disclaimer before being tied up saying that he wouldn’t press charges if sex got too crazy.

Police killed a Phoenix man after a standoff near North 28th Way and East Marilyn Road.

Phoenix police shot and killed a man Tuesday who they say tried to ram a van out of a garage where he had been holed up.

Detective Bob Ragsdale, Phoenix police spokesman, said the man is described as a white male in his 40s, and police are still trying to identify him.

Ragsdale said in an e-mail that the incident began about 10:30 p.m. Monday, when officers began following a red Saturn that was missing a license plate in the area of 28th Street and East Marilyn Road.

The driver bailed out in the 14400 block of North 28th Way and fired a shot at officers who were chasing him.

No one was struck as police continued to chase him through yards and over walls.

The suspect made his way to a house with an open garage, where officers fired shots at him before he got the garage door down.

One of the home’s residents was outside investigating the disturbance, but two people remained inside.

Police got the other occupants out of the house safely.

A SWAT unit checked the home and found that the suspect was still in the garage.

Negotiators broke a garage window to throw in a communications system, at which time the man opened fire and began to ram the van into police vehicles that were parked in the driveway.

Two officers returned fire. The man was pronounced dead at a local hospital, Ragsdale said.

Investigators found a semi-automatic handgun at the scene.

Tempe police negotiators are working to deescalate a situation where a Tempe man is armed and suicidal in his Tempe apartment.

A Tempe man has barricaded himself inside an apartment near First Street and Hardy Drive. Police believe he is armed.

The Tempe Police Department’s SWAT team is on the scene and after some failed attempts negotiators were able to start communication at about 12:15 p.m., Tempe Police spokesman Mike Horn said.

At about 8:40 a.m. Tuesday, the Tempe Police Department received a call about a domestic dispute between a boyfriend and a girlfriend at the South Bank Apartments. The couple had gotten into an argument Monday night and the woman left the apartment just before midnight. She later returned to the apartment at some point early Tuesday morning and the argument continued. She was being held against her will, Horn said, but then managed to somehow get out of the apartment. The woman suffered minor injuries.

Violence at a downtown Phoenix nightclub in the waning hours of the weekend left four people injured by gunshots.

The incident started with an argument inside the Sky Lounge, located near Second and Washington streets, at 1:27 a.m. Sunday morning, Phoenix Police Lt. Brian DeBenedetto said.

The dispute then continued outside the club. A fight broke out among several people in the parking lot. One person took out a 9mm handgun and fired the weapon, hitting a man in the stomach and leg, DeBenedetto said.

The shooter along with two other men then fled in a white Chevrolet Caprice, DeBenedetto said. The men fired randomly toward the club as they drove off.

Two men and a woman standing in the front of the club were hit but the wounds were non-life threatening. It’s believed they had no connection to the fight, DeBenedetto said.
