"Mesa Crime Roundup: Homicide, Missing Persons, and Deadly Crashes"
Published 8 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Mesa police are actively investigating a homicide near McKellips Road and Lindsay Road. Officers responded to a 911 call on July 11 regarding an unresponsive infant. Paramedics transported a four-week-old girl to the hospital in critical condition. According to the Independent, extensive injuries were discovered and after two weeks of medical care the child passed away on July 26. The girl’s father, Jonathan Enriquez, age 22, was subsequently arrested and booked on charges of first-degree murder and felony child abuse. Police allege he admitted to striking the infant and said he felt remorse. He is currently being held at the Maricopa County Jail on a $1 million bond and the case remains under investigation.
On August 8, at approximately 5:25 PM, a Silver Alert was issued for a missing Mesa resident near McDowell Road and Val Vista Drive. The missing person is 71-year-old Quenett Scott, a Black female, last seen wearing a long-sleeve green top, white pants and white shoes. She is prone to seizures and does not have her medication. Mesa police have asked for the public’s assistance and anyone with information is urged to contact authorities. The alert remains active.
Mesa police are requesting the public’s help in locating a missing juvenile, 17-year-old Lazariah McCarthy. The last known location was in central Mesa on August 8. The department describes her as a missing endangered juvenile, and the investigation is ongoing. No suspect information has been released.
A fatal collision occurred near the intersection of U.S. 60 and Country Club Drive on August 8. The Arizona Department of Public Safety stated the incident involved two vehicles and resulted in one death. The identity of the deceased has not been released. The investigation into the cause of the crash is ongoing.
Deputies are investigating a death near Loop 202 and Alma School Road after a body was discovered in the Salt River on August 7. Law enforcement says foul play is not suspected at this time and the deceased has not been identified. The case is pending further examination by the medical examiner’s office.
A woman previously arrested for an alleged shooting near Higley and McKellips Roads was sentenced to prison this week. The shooting incident, captured on camera last summer, involved the woman allegedly firing at a family. Details about sentencing were reported, but Mesa police say no further suspects are being sought in connection with this case.
Mesa authorities responded to a fiery fatal crash involving a pickup truck along Loop 202 Red Mountain Freeway earlier in the week. Details indicate a single driver died as a result of the incident. The case is closed pending notification of next of kin.
Mesa Community College is under internal investigation following allegations that a drama department instructor required students to undress as part of a midterm assignment. The investigation is ongoing and no criminal charges have been filed at this time.
From the previous week’s reports, possible trends include an increased number of missing person investigations and multiple fatal vehicle crashes, though no single type of crime has shown a consistent rise. Listeners with information on any active case or suspicious activity are encouraged to contact Mesa police directly at 480-644-2211 or submit anonymous tips through Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS.
