Triple homicide suspect arrested in southern Arizona

The 41-year-old suspect is facing three charges of first-degree murder. The victims were killed last year.

YUMA COUNTY, Ariz. — A San Luis man has been taken into custody on suspicion of murdering three people in Yuma County. 

Ivan Humberto Osuna, 41, was arrested Tuesday after warrants were issued to detain the suspect in relation to three homicides that occurred last year, according to the Yuma County Sheriff's Office. 

One of the cases involves two people who were found dead on the side of the road last September near County 13th Street and Avenue F. Both victims had sustained gunshot wounds.

At the time of his arrest, Osuna was in custody in another state for an unrelated matter.

Osuna has been booked into the Yuma County jail on three pending charges for first-degree murder. 

YCSO said the homicide cases are still under investigation and anyone with information can call 928-783-4427.
