A violent early-morning confrontation inside a Gilbert, Arizona, home ended with two people dead on October 11, 2015. Stacey Steward, a 43-year-old Black woman, and 17-year-old Alex Tamborski were found fatally shot after a dispute at the residence near Lindsay and Ray roads. Steward shared the home with 35-year-old Matthew Crain; also present that night were Steward’s teenage daughter and the daughter’s boyfriend, Tamborski. The daughter escaped and alerted authorities, identifying Crain as her mother’s roommate and the suspected shooter.

Crain fled before officers arrived and was later located by police near Val Vista Drive and Williams Field Road. Officers said he failed to follow commands and made movements they perceived as threatening; two officers shot him, and he was taken to a hospital in critical condition. The firearm believed to have been used was not recovered initially; a neighbor later reportedly found a gun that police said was likely connected and subject to ballistics testing. No other suspects have been publicly identified; prosecutors charged Crain with two counts of first-degree murder and related felonies. Did anyone in the Gilbert area know Stacey Steward or have information about that night?
