Maricopa, Arizona — On August 29, 2022, around 10:30 a.m., Maricopa Police Department responded to a call of a noise disturbance at a residence in the 43900 block of West McCord Drive. The homeowner, identified as 38-year-old Brian Simmons, initially approach officers to shake their hands and give them a hug. He then returns to the driveway where officers observe him grabbing a gun. Simmons did not respond to their commands to drop the guns. Eventually, an officer fires a non-lethal round and appears to hit Simmons. At that point, Simmons retreated into the house and barricaded himself.
Moments later, Simmons comes around to a side yard from the back of the house and fires one shotgun round. No one is hit. Police respond with a flurry of gunfire, at least 22 shots fired. Maricopa Police called in the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office and the SWAT Team to help out. Eventually, drones are deployed and show Simmons on the ground. A flash-bang is fired and lands within feet of where Simmons lies at 1:15 p.m., SWAT Team members approached the residence and found Simmons dead in the yard. Several homes in the area were briefly evacuated, and Butterfield Elementary School went on lockdown, and then shelter-in-place.

This Guy used some tactics give me a hug
Blurred out the best part
Now this is heroic activity.
That's a good song
The way the situation changed so suddenly as soon as the cop said “Aw this motherf*cker just picked up a handgun†is something just mind boggling. He comes out giving handshakes & hugs almost to apologize for what he’s about to do. You can tell the same cop that said that has obviously dealt with him before & knows how quick this guy can go from one extreme to another.
BRIAN! Look at me, I am the captain now
This man said goodbye, Whatever situation going on when the police arrived he should have been detained. He hugged them and walked away from it all. That should have been a clue.
Stupid to let him hug them ?? they could have restrained him right there
I guess the neighbours are happy
👎.Co to ma być .Cyrk ? .Gościu przychodzi , wita sie z wami , odchodzi a wy go zabijacie .Żenada .
Guy had his guns out in the thumbnail
Wow they really let him bleed out for 3 hours so they could play swat
talk about a 'roid rage…
Idk why you bother hiding the street address, it's going to be public knowledge.
Now I see how Katie Hobbs got re-elected.
OK THIS GUY WAS A BIPOLAR NUTCASE, UNHINGED ONE SECOND HE COMES GIVES A HUG,AND LITERLLY THE NEXT SECOND HE PICKS UP A GUN OR 2 WITH AN AXE AND GOES BALISTIC….I LOVE AMERICA LOL OUR CITIZEN ARE JUST BUILT NUTSSS
Get dropped 💪
I bet his neighbours are thinking, thank Christ that's over.
very beautiful & developed country, but why so many dangerous people over there
That retarded song….
All i can say is wtf? The most confusing thing ever
What a shitty song to die to.
Maricopa? The rez!
Screw that, right when he touched the guns, immediate shots down range. Why so many cops are losing there lives. They’re waiting for the suspect to shoot first. These cops are to scared to use deadly force with it’s justified due to this new justice system BS we have. The chances cops give people these days is absurd…. Remember we go home at the end of the day.
I had hoped they would throw the pup in the car to keep it safe. This is the first time I have seen the cops use a drone.
When Police is taking our rifles – you fucked up.
Ryan Simmons had the right to protest.
His dog broke up with him. That's what happens.
imagine dyin 2 that horrible ass song
Such a waste, that water.
drugs like cocaine and heroina provocates this
The Plants got watered and the Dogs ok. Great stuff.ðŸ‘🇬🇧🇮🇱🇬🇧✌ï¸
How very sad for all involved.
11:23 sounds like the dog got hit?!?! Anyone know anything about the dog?
The music on blast while in action 😅😅
The neighbor that called the cops watching like
ðŸ‘👄ðŸ‘
Y'all guess what song he is listening to – Nu Breed Feat. Jesse Howard – Welcome To My House 😳
He listening to jellyroll while busting at police
I know it’s the officers that are in huge danger but I really couldn’t be the wife of one of these officers, not knowing if everyday might be the last time you see them!
Never seen the ‘less lethal’ beanbag round ever be effective in gaining compliance. It’s never been effective. If anything, it’s use escalates the situation each and every time. EVERY TIME.
The song was everything… his initial interaction with the 3 officers was his way of saying is OK to do whatever you have to and I don't blame you. I don't know what's going on but this is becoming a daily event when it used to be so rare it was a shock when it happened.
Drugs are amazing hey 😅 you got everything in life most people would want amd you just piss it all away
Imagine all the neighbors having to deal with this nutjob on a daily basis. What a relief he’s dead
Sgt. is a badass with that rifle
I am genuinely confused. How are they one moment all huggy huggy and seconds after shooty shooty? . He looked like he was on those funny kind of medicaments that suspect.
I really hope the dog is ok
The setting was staged for this result. From the a great song blaring on loop to his belongings strewn all over his driveway in disarray. It was a production. His 15 minutes. Brian didn't want anything except for the pain to go away. His hugs were a thanks to the officers for showing up to do what Brian wanted. A textbook suicide by cop. I hope the officers understand they were the remedy and don't blame themselves, this was outcome Brian wanted. I don't know whether to be sad or angry, some people just have different limits. I hope Brian found some peace… I hope we all do…
