Two teenagers – 15 and 16 years old – were arrested on suspicion of first degree murder in a murder in the Tucson apartment complex, police say.

Dean Ryan Marcischak, 19, was killed on July 14 in the parking lot of a complex on Block 8800 on East Broadway.

The police said that the motive was an armed robbery.

Evidence of the crime was found in a nearby apartment and Brian Lann, 16, was arrested, police say.

Lann was initially admitted to Pima County Jail on suspicion of attempted armed robbery. On July 19, the charges were changed to include suspicion of the first degree murder, police said.

Police also arrested Samuel Salisbury Jones, 15, in the case.

Tucson SWAT and K9 officials found Jones leaving a residence near Southland Boulevard and East Alvord Road on the night of July 20, police said in a press release.

Jones was taken into custody without incident and detained on suspicion of first degree murder, attempted armed robbery and parole violation, police said.

While both Lann and Jones are minors, the Arizona Daily Star names them because they were arrested as adults on suspicion of murder.
