While the aftermath of Arizona's massive Medicaid scandal is not over, some patients who once were challenged in trying to find a legit place to get clean have finally found a place to do so.

In a letter sent to the U.S. Department of Justice, officials with the City of Phoenix allege there has been 'a lack of transparency by the DOJ' amid an ongoing probe into the city's police force.

From a deadly incident involving a tree in South Phoenix to the latest on the ongoing teen violence investigations in Gilbert, here's a look at some of our top stories.

The identity of a 26-year-old Phoenix man who died in a crash on westbound Interstate Highway 80 in Vallejo in December has been released by the Solano County Coroner's Office.

The incident, according to police, happened at a park near 12th Street and South Mountain Avenue in South Phoenix.

The incident happened near the Prescott Valley Civic Center, according to fire officials.

The death of 16-year-old Preston Lord at a Halloween party in Queen Creek has put a lot of attention and pressure on the East Valley police departments to investigate teen violence cases.

"Innocent victims that have been attacked have kind of just come forward, and it just raised awareness," said the victim's mother. "I think it may have put pressure on the police department to take initiative and reopen these cases that, quite frankly, should never have been closed."

The investigation will determine if the so-called ‘Gilbert Goons’ can be classified as a criminal street gang under Arizona law.

The incident, according to police, unfolded in the area of 75th Avenue and Thunderbird.
