“None of the men accused in a deadly west Phoenix home invasion this week is an active member of the Mexican military, according to Phoenix police.
Daniel Garcia-Saenz, 24; Manual Garcia-Trejom, 25; and Rodolfo Madrigal Lopez, 19, were arrested Sunday night in connection with the slaying of Andrew Williams, 30, who was gunned down in his home in the 8300 block of West Cypress Avenue.
The assailants wore body armor, had assault-style rifles and used more than 100 rounds of ammunition.
After the arrests, one of the men - whom police have not identified - told a police officer that he had received some military training, said Sgt. Joel Tranter, a police spokesman.
That statement launched speculation that members of the Mexican army invaded the home.”

You are correct. The victim is not identified as a LEO.
And the perps are not “active” members of the Mexican army.
I jumped the gun on this. I've gotten in the habit of assuming the worst.
No problem.
It took the AZR three days to do this story. I’m suspicious of the denial of military involvement. These invaders were wearing TAC gear and had PhPD POLICE shirts. 1-3 others are still out there...can’t get a right count.
Just a play on words. Don't beat yourself up over this. There is more to this story, a lot more.
