Overview
- Police say 38‑year‑old Andrea Clarice Davis fired shots at her husband and a 36‑year‑old woman outside a Glendale bar before returning home and killing her children and herself.
- Officers forced entry to the Phoenix home after the husband received threatening texts and a photo showing one child bleeding, and they found the mother and two children with apparent gunshot wounds.
- Phoenix police identified the victims as a 10‑year‑old boy and an 18‑month‑old girl, and investigators recovered a handgun from the residence during a search warrant.
- Glendale Police will handle the bar shooting while Phoenix Police investigate the murder‑suicide, and officials say there were no prior domestic‑violence or behavioral‑health calls to the family’s home.
- Family members have started a GoFundMe for the children’s father and local advocates are citing the case in calls for new child‑protection laws related to custody disputes.
