According to ARIZONA’S FAMILY, in Tempe, Arizona a dramatic incident involving a U.S. Marshals task force ended tragically with the death of 35-year-old Matthew Walsh who was wanted on multiple felony charges. The situation unfolded near Rural Road and Southern Avenue when law enforcement officers attempted to apprehend Walsh at a residence. They surrounded the house and issued commands for everyone inside to come out. While four individuals complied Walsh and a woman who remains unidentified refused to cooperate leading to a tense standoff scenario.
