One man is dead and another faces one count of first-degree murder in an overnight home break-in, police said Sunday.
The name of the 51-year-old victim has not yet been released.
Police arrested Paul Wegele, 31, who was found hiding in a bedroom.
Officers responded to a 911 call around 12:38 a.m. at a home in the 6900 block of E. Wethersfield Road.
The communications operator heard sounds, but could not make contact with the caller, said Sgt. Tommy Thompson of the Phoenix Police Department.
Arriving officers said they saw someone walking around inside the home, but he would not open the door when police knocked.
Officers said they found the carport door to the home had been forced open, Thompson said. They entered the home and found the man's body and Wegele, who was in a bedroom.
