In the late summer of 2022, the life of a Tucson man, 67-year-old Glenn Long, was brought to an abrupt and violent end. On Wednesday, August 24th, the sound of gunfire shattered the peace near Kelso Street and Balboa Avenue. When police responded to the reports of shots fired, they discovered Mr. Long inside a trailer parked on the street, suffering from a gunshot wound.
He was rushed to a nearby hospital, but tragically, his injuries proved to be fatal.
The investigation into the shooting quickly pointed to a suspect. Authorities identified 35-year-old Capriana Alcantar as the individual believed to be responsible for Mr. Long's death. According to police, a dispute between Alcantar and Long escalated, culminating in the fatal shooting. The exact nature of their relationship and the details of the argument that led to the deadly encounter were not immediately made public.
Following their investigation, Tucson police located and arrested Capriana Alcantar. She was subsequently booked into the Pima County Jail, facing a charge of first-degree murder in connection with the death of Glenn Long. A judge set her bond at one million dollars as she awaited legal proceedings for her alleged role in the violent incident that took a man's life.
