Travis Dunham, 50, was killed on January 8, 2019, during a violent home invasion at his north Phoenix residence near North Valley Parkway and Casino Avenue. The attack began when an acquaintance, Michael Warner, reportedly visited under the guise of a normal call and signaled accomplices to enter. Matthew Zawacky and other unidentified suspects came through the garage armed with a handgun, ordered residents to the ground, restrained Dunham and moved three other occupants to a bedroom. Zawacky shot and killed two of Dunham’s dogs during the robbery.

At some point Dunham broke free, armed himself and shot Zawacky. Zawacky returned fire, fatally wounding Dunham. The suspects fled; blood evidence from Zawacky’s wound led investigators to him while he sought medical treatment. Witnesses later said Zawacky told them Warner had planned the robbery. Warner was arrested after initially contacting police and claiming to be a victim.

If anyone knew Dunham, the household’s visitors, or saw activity near North Valley Parkway and Casino Avenue around January 8, 2019, please share what was seen or heard.
