On September 14, 2023, at approximately 6:51 am, Coconino County Sheriff’s Deputies from the William Substation responded to Valle AZ, for the report of a domestic violence incident involving a weapon.
Deputies responding to the scene found the victim had been assaulted throughout the evening. After Deputies and a Trooper from the Department of Public Safety arrived on scene, they were advised the suspect had fled and was possibly armed.
While searching and securing an associated residence, Deputies were fired upon from a ridge line by an unknown subject with a gun. At this point Deputies pulled back and a perimeter was set up. The Northern Arizona Tactical Team was deployed to the area along with an Arizona Department of Public Safety Helicopter.
A resident called the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office around 10 p.m. to report that the fugitive was being held at gunpoint at a property in Valle. Deputies took Aaron Rose into custody without incident, CCSO said in a press release Friday.
Rose was booked into jail in Flagstaff on counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and burglary.
