Chandler police officer, 2 suspects die in Phoenix shootout
At least one Chandler police officer and two criminal suspects were killed in a shootout during an undercover drug operation that went awry in south Phoenix on Wednesday evening.
The names of the dead were not immediately available late Wednesday because Phoenix police were still trying to sort out what happened inside a residence in the 2300 block of West Darrel Road where rescue personnel were called around 6:45 p.m.
The crime scene is in the vicinity of South 23rd Avenue and Vineyard Road.
A Phoenix police spokesman, Sgt. Steve Martos, said the Chandler police undercover operation involved about a dozen officers, some of them members of the Chandler department's SWAT team, when shooting erupted inside the home.
