With the recent random shootings along Interstate 10 in the Phoenix area, the Arizona State Troopers Association (ASTA) is adding $1,000 to the reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for this act of “domestic terrorism.”
“For the past two weeks, commuters on the Phoenix freeways have been on edge because of a person or people who clearly have no respect for human life,” state Sgt. Jimmy Chavez, president of the ASTA. “Arizona Department of Public Safety (AZDPS) Troopers, and law enforcement in general, are also targets as they go out there and do their job day in and day out. Whether this is something that is related to the recent ‘anit-cop’ movement or not, these unlawful actions are certainly terrorizing our community. Our organization, in conjunction with the AZDPS, is encouraging anyone who sees something suspicious, to contact Silent Witness at (480)WITNESS – 480-948-6377, or the AZDPS hotline at 602-644-5805.”
Chavez further states, “The ASTA stands behind its members, the agency and the citizens of this state. We will not tolerate anyone who terrorizes our ability to go about our daily lives without fear.”
