Sexual Assault Suspect Killed After Back-to-Back Shootouts with Arizona Police

In a harrowing series of events that unfolded on January 6 and 7, a suspect, identified as 31-year-old Kenneth Hearne, was killed after engaging in two consecutive shootouts with Arizona police. The first incident occurred when Scottsdale police attempted to serve an arrest warrant on Hearne, who was wanted in connection with an alleged sexual assault that took place in October. As officers approached Hearne's apartment complex, the suspect allegedly opened fire, striking one officer before fleeing the scene. The injured officer was immediately rushed to the hospital, where he received treatment for his wounds and is now expected to make a full recovery.

The manhunt for Hearne came to a tragic end the following day, when Phoenix police located the suspect in Tempe. In a tense confrontation, Hearne allegedly opened fire on the officers once again, prompting them to return fire in self-defense. The suspect was fatally wounded during the exchange of gunfire, bringing an end to the dangerous and unpredictable situation. The incident has left the community shaken and raised questions about Hearne's motives and the circumstances that led to his alleged involvement in the sexual assault case.
