Videos show three suspects in shooting death of Tucson police recruit Carlos Ramirez
The Pima County Sheriff's Department released surveillance video showing suspects linked to the fatal shooting of Tucson police recruit Carlos Ramirez.
The Pima County Sheriff's Department is now on the hunt for three men in connection with a Wednesday morning shooting that left a Tucson police recruit dead and his corrections officer fiancée hospitalized with a gunshot wound.
Authorities say they've obtained an arrest warrant for Alex James Barnett, 33, one of the three suspects. The other two men have not yet been publicly identified as of Friday morning.
Surveillance video released Thursday night shows at least two other men wearing black in separate clips — one at a gas station at 5405 West Valencia Road around 5:20 a.m. on Wednesday and later in a parking lot near South Palo Verde Road and East 33rd Street at around 10:50 a.m.
The suspect vehicle, a gray Acura MDX SUV, was abandoned there and recovered by police Thursday, authorities said.
One of the unidentified men appears to have tattoos on his arms and legs. He had short, dark hair and a short beard. The person seen dropping off the Acura was pictured only in grainy video and appeared to be wearing a shirt without sleeves.
The murder victim has been identified as 23-year-old Carlos Ramirez, who was due to graduate from the police academy on Aug. 27 and previously worked as a corrections officer for the sheriff's department.
His fiancée, also 23, was taken to a hospital in stable condition. Authorities did not immediately release her name.
