A midday robbery at Quick Trip Pawn on West Prince Road in Tucson ended in lethal gunfire on June 20, 2025. Surveillance shows a gunman firing a warning shot into the ceiling, then exchanging gunfire with 47-year-old employee Anthony David Tarli, who returned fire but was struck. Emergency responders took Tarli to a hospital, where he died. A 49-year-old customer, Francisco Vejar, was also shot and pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators traced the getaway vehicle, a silver Toyota Prius rented in Chandler, using GPS records to an apartment complex in Glendale the same evening. Glendale police detained 44-year-old David Javier Maldonado and 23-year-old Amari Taivonne Harris; one was found with a duffel bag containing several firearms taken from the pawn shop. Searches of residences in Glendale and Tucson recovered additional stolen weapons, and both were booked into the Pima County Jail and charged with two counts of first-degree murder plus multiple robbery counts.

Was anyone in the Tucson or Glendale area aware of the suspects visiting the pawn shop earlier that day or of any conversations they had with staff?
