On the evening of December 21, 2022, 30-year-old Shane Robert Knoll was killed during a confrontation at a Chevron convenience store near 19th Avenue and Bethany Home Road in Phoenix. Knoll, who worked at the store, had asked 40-year-old Jaime Flores to leave after an altercation. The two men fought, Knoll drew a gun, and Flores seized the weapon and shot Knoll. Flores then left the store and took his own life; police described the event as a murder-suicide.

Friends and family remembered Knoll as hardworking and dependable, someone who enjoyed skateboarding, cars, and bicycles and who often had to deal with trespassing and other crime at his job. He was described by his mother as a good kid who cared for family and friends.
