Phoenix Police Shooting Sparks Investigation

A Phoenix man, James Glenn, 56, was fatally shot by police on June 11 after allegedly pulling a gun during a traffic stop — the same day a jury found him guilty of 15 felony counts of child sexual abuse involving two girls, one as recently as 2021. Glenn had skipped court earlier that day, triggering an arrest warrant. Officers found him driving near 23rd Ave and Pinnacle Peak Rd, used a device to stop his car, and he reportedly pointed a gun at them before being shot. No one else was injured. Glenn, facing life in prison, had his attorney withdraw from the case citing ethics concerns. Arizona DPS is now investigating the shooting — one of nine times Phoenix police have fired their weapons this year, six of which were fatal.
