On Wednesday, Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell announced charges against Jesus Nunez, 18; Jorge Jurado Martinez, 17; and Kevin Tristan, 17. Both minors are being charged as adults. Sandoval and Martinez were also indicted in an armed robbery that happened just before the home invasion.
Three additional men, 65-year-old Pete Canez, 59-year old Robert Rosas and 39-year-old Anthony Rosas, face felony charges of hindering prosecution after they were accused of helping two of the home invasion suspects attempt to flee to Mexico.
Nunez was previously booked on charges of armed robbery, theft of means of transportation, burglary, aggravated assault and aggravated robbery in connection to this incident. He is being held on a $250,000 bond.
Around 6 a.m. on June 6, police responded to reports of a burglary near Arizona Avenue and Elliot Road. According to court paperwork, an elderly man reported that someone broke into his home and shot one of his daughters. The victim reported that at least two unknown men forced their way inside through his bedroom door and struck him in the head with a gun, according to authorities.
Police say that during the home invasion, the suspects demanded that the victim give up his vehicle keys and later stole his Mercedes sedan.

The injured daughter, whom police say had special needs due to a traumatic brain injury, was taken to the hospital with two gunshot wounds to her arm. Her father was also hospitalized, and both are expected to survive.
Court documents state that just 20 minutes before the home break-in, an Uber driver reported that five men with tattoos tried to get into his sedan. The driver told the group that he couldn’t fit all of them inside his vehicle, which led to an argument. Police say the driver told them to get out of his car, but was struck in the head with a firearm by one of the men.
Nunez and Martinez were indicted on two counts of armed robbery, two counts of aggravated robbery, three counts of aggravated assault and one count of burglary. Martinez also faces a charge of misconduct involving weapons.
Tristan faces charges of burglary, aggravated robbery and aggravated assault.
