Arizona authorities have arrested a man in connection with a home invasion shooting that killed a Tucson police recruit and left his fiancee hospitalized.
Carlos Ramirez, 23, was shot dead at his home in southwestern Tucson early Wednesday morning, according to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department. He was expected to graduate the police academy on Aug. 27 and had previously worked for PCSD as a corrections officer. His 23-year-old fiancee, whose name has not been released, also works as a corrections officer in the department.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos previously said the suspects were wearing all black clothing and ski masks at the time of the shooting — which happened around 6 a.m. Wednesday.

Deputies arrested Santiago Jorge Rogers, 39, at a hotel on South Palo Verda Road in Tucson on Saturday morning, the sheriff said in a statement. He is being held without bond at the county jail.
Alex James Barnett, 33, remains at large. He has a rap sheet that includes prior burglary and weapons convictions and has also been known as Alex Wilson, according to court records. In December 2024, he pleaded guilty to an unlawful imprisonment charge.
According to FOX 10 Phoenix, he was last seen wearing a red shirt and black leather vest and riding a Harley-Davidson FLHXS motorcycle with the Arizona license plate, DA466.
