WHY, Arizona — As the investigation continued Friday into the death of Tohono O'odham police Officer Bryan Brown, condolences and memories of the slain officer began to emerge across southern Arizona.
Brown died after attempting to make an arrest outside Why, west of Tucson, on Thursday. Prosecutors say a man stole Brown's patrol vehicle, then ran the officer down as he opened fire.
Brown had worked as a school resource officer in the tribal community, where school officials described his impact.

Superintendent Edna Morris in a statement on Facebook said Brown worked as a resource officer for the district for 10 years. She said students, parents and staff were saddened by the news of Brown's death.
'He will always be remembered for his kindness, loyalty, integrity, and ability to connect with our children,' Morris wrote.
On Friday, prosecutors filed charges against Carlos Maximilliano Galvan in federal court in Tucson. They say Galvan stole Brown's patrol vehicle, rammed a Border Patrol vehicle nearby, then drove toward Brown. As the officer fired at the oncoming vehicle, Galvan ran him over, the criminal complaint says.
So far in 2020, six police officers have died in Arizona, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page, an organization that keeps track of officers who have died on-duty and off-duty.
The last time a Tohono O'odham police officer died in the line of duty was in April 1998, when Michael Steven Delagado was killed by a drunken driver, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page.
