It's no secret the 73 Area of our Mountain View Precinct is one of the busiest in terms of calls for service. However, response times are hampered its geographical footprint, brought on by a precinct boundary change and staffing shortage which are both coupled to and compounded by the City's six year hiring freeze. Another result of the boundary change is that the 61 Area of the Desert Horizon Precinct, where this incident occurred, has been stretched further south and east into what used to be the 73 area. How ironic that the man who helped run Phoenix into the ground by not advocating for sufficient police staffing is now a victim of that choice?
