Homeowner won’t face charges in deadly southern Arizona shooting, prosecutors say

A homeowner who shot and killed an alleged intruder in southern Arizona earlier this year will not be charged, prosecutors say. The shooting happened Aug.

30 in a neighborhood in Saint David, a small town just south of Benson.

The Cochise County Sheriff’s Office and the Cochise County Attorney’s Office announced the decision Saturday after finishing their review of the death of 67-year-old Daniel Elzy.

The homeowner was inside with his family, including two small children, when he heard a window break, according to the sheriff’s office.
