Jorge Vargas, 27, was rushed to a hospital after the 4 a.m. attack and died a short time later, Phoenix police Sgt. Trent Crump said.

No one was in custody yet and there was no information on a motive.

“It’s really a whodunit,” Crump said, adding that investigators are looking into whether the shooting was connected to the victim’s job.

“Anytime we have a homicide and the suspect is unknown, we start with our victim,” Crump said. “But we can’t rule out a random act.”

AZ Family reported neighbor Elise Contento saying disturbances aren’t uncommon in their area.

“I heard three gunshots,” Contento told AZ Family. “When I came out the front door, I heard a bunch of dogs barking …. I knew something had happened. … (I thought) here we go again.”

Vargas was an eight-year veteran who worked for the Sheriff’s Office Custody Support Bureau in the jail’s food factory, but he often came into contact with inmates, Sheriff Joe Arpaio said

He wouldn’t speculate about whether Vargas’ killing may have been related to his work, but said his office was assisting Phoenix police in the investigation, including gathering intelligence from the jails.

      My sister is a correction officer there and said it was a hit put out for refusing to do favors for the leader of the az chapter of the Mexican mafia while he was held there waiting trail. She said there were 2 others that did the same and had to move and get a house under a different name so they could not be found easily through public records. Arpaio has to know this but is using it to further militarize his people

        what do you suggest? They cowtow to the wishes of the mexican Mafia? what choice do they have? He doesn’t need an excuse to “miltarize”.

      Sad thing is I do not even feel for him or his family just because he was a cop.
      Most cops today are thugs on a power trip and the ones that are not will lie for their brother officer

      where police used to be respected and looked up to now they are hated and looked down on.
      I am sure there are some good ones Like Joe Arpaio whom I have the upmost respect for because he does his job and does it well.

      Its the ones that abuse their position who male all them look bad as a whole.
      Lots of people cheer when a cop is hurt or killed.

      If something is not done soon to reign them in there is going to be a straw that breaks the camels back and people are going to fight back.
      When that happens the hunters become the hunted. The nations whole police force will be cleansed. Sadly some good honest officers and their family will pay for something they had nothing to do with.
      I suspect many of the good ones will change sides and give the freedom fighters inside info on locations of hidden bad ones.

      You can only push and abuse people so much before they fight back. When fighting back they
