Man shot to death Sunday in western Arizona identified
A man killed in a Sunday morning shooting in western Arizona has been identified as 49-year-old Kenneth Ranes.
The Mohave County Sheriff’s office said the medical examiner determined that the Mohave Valley man died of multiple gunshot wounds.
The suspected shooter, 58-year-old Steven Whiting, has not been charged; the case remains under investigation.
Whiting told detectives that he shot Ranes, an acquaintance, in self-defense. The sheriff’s office said Whiting said he fired as Ranes demanded money and approached him aggressively after entering Whiting’s home uninvited.
