Mesa is near to 2004 count of homicides
Two weekend killings have Mesa edging toward last year's number of homicides.
…
The first shooting occurred Saturday in the 300 block of East Sixth Avenue after an early morning altercation between two Mesa men, police said.
Russell Wagner, 54, told police he shot Aaron Prescott, 19, after Prescott tried to enter his home about 2:30 a.m. He said he opened his door after hearing yelling outside and Prescott tried to enter through a screen door.
Wagner claims he shot in self-defense and told investigators he didn't know Prescott, Detective Tim Gaffney said.
Police questioned Wagner and released him.
