A murder suspect from Arizona died as the result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after Riverside County Sheriff’s deputies attempted to arrest him in Anza.
Fiona Luvisi, 33, died by suicide at the Circle K located on the 56600 block of Highway 371 in Anza during an attempted arrest. Luvisi was under surveillance by the Hemet Sheriff Station’s Investigation Bureau at the request of the Phoenix Police Department at the time of his attempted arrest and death.

Witnesses reported seeing a suspect, believed to Luvisi, arguing with Hawkins at the location, before shooting Hawkins and fleeing the scene.
Hawkins was transported to an area hospital with critical injuries, where she was later pronounced dead.
There were no other outstanding suspects wanted in connection with this case.
