I am in Peoria, a suburb of Phoenix, AZ for doctor appointments and a family reunion. Today I went grocery shopping at Safeway with my nieces and sister, and when we exited the Safeway store, we found four police cars, an ambulance and a firetruck in the lot and more emergency vehicles arriving. Our car was inside the taped off area around a crime scene and police officers were talking to a woman in the row behind our car.  Police did lift the tape to let us exit and we took my nieces home and came back to my doctor’s office in the same center. When we exited my doctor’s office an hour later, the area was still taped off  with a number of policemen in evidence. We looked online to discover this headline: Woman dead, man critical after shooting near Peoria Safeway. Detectives believe the individuals were known to one another. Here is the rest of the story:
