Corey Michael Saunders, age 44, fatally shot in Arizona

AbateHate.com — Corey Michael Saunders, age 44, was fatally shot in Tucson, Arizona.

The suspect, 35-year-old Leslie Stephen Scarlett, was fatally shot by police. 

Saunders was shot as he helped firefighters battle a blaze at a home apparently set by Scarlett. Also killed was Scarlett's 36-year-old girlfriend, Jennifer Fells, whose charred remains were found in the house.

An EMT, 20-year-old Jacob Dindinger, was reportedly shot in the head by Scarlett. Dindinger was responding to an unrelated call nearby when he was shot. He survived the shooting, but remains in critical condition. 

Another EMT, Cassandra Moreno, age 21, was shot in the arm and chest by Scarlett, but was able to contact 911 to report the carnage. She survived the shooting.

Reports say Saunders proposed to his girlfriend the day before being killed. 

Saunders' Facebook page reveals he was a supporter of Donald Trump's 2020 presidential campaign. 

Fells was black, Dindinger is white, and Moreno appears to be Hispanic. 

The incident occurred July 18, 2021.

A convicted felon accused of fatally shooting at least one person and wounding four others, including firefighters and paramedics, during a house fire in Tucson last weekend has died at a hospital, police said Thursday.

Leslie Stephen Scarlett, 35, had been in extremely critical condition at a local hospital since being wounded in an exchange of gunfire with a police officer Sunday.

Scarlett died from his injuries Wednesday, police said.

A motive for the attack apparently remains unclear, but police confirmed that a badly burned body found inside the home was Scarlett’s girlfriend.

The body was identified as 36-year-old Jennifer Fells, and an autopsy showed she suffered gunshot trauma, police announced Thursday.
