Police Officer Zane Coolidge succumbed to gunshot wounds sustained three days earlier while responding to reports of a larceny from a motor vehicle near the intersection of 16th Street and McDowell Road at about 6:30 pm.
As officers arrived on scene, the suspect fled on foot and jumped a fence into a backyard. The man then opened fire on officers, striking Officer Coolidge and a second officer before being taken into custody.
Officer Coolidge was transported to a local hospital where he remained until succumbing to his wounds three days later.
The suspect, a multi-times convicted felon who was on parole, has been charged with first-degree murder and illegal possession of a weapon.
Officer Coolidge had served with the Phoenix Police Department for five years. He is survived by his wife and infant daughter.
