Shooting

On November 11, 2018, 22-year-old Sterling Randall Hunt entered the Jammerz Bar on North Broad Street. Hunt was seen playing pool with a group of people prior to the shooting.[3] Shortly before 10:30 p.m., a few people from the group stepped away to smoke outside, with Hunt following close behind. Outside, he brandished a handgun and opened fire on the group. Immediately, he fatally shot two people; 44-year-old Cristi Licano, and 22-year-old Daniel Albo.[4] Another two he shot, 22-year-old Ashley Sanchez, who was Albo's cousin,[5] and 20-year-old Charlene Peak, were shot and wounded.[6] A fifth person, Scott Mills, was shot at by Hunt, but he managed to take cover and as a result, none of the bullets struck him.[6] After the shooting, Hunt fled the bar, and was captured an hour later on the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation.[5] Both Sanchez and Peak were airlifted to a Phoenix hospital. Sanchez spent seven days in the hospital before she died from her injuries. Peak made a full recovery.[1]
