US Army Reservist Victim of Mesa Shooting

Mesa Police have released the names of the two people murdered at a Dobson High School graduation party on Saturday night. The murder victims have been identified as 38 year old Sally Johnson-Huddleston and 32 year old Auston Blanks. Ms. Johnson-Huddleston was hosting the graduation party for her 17 year old daughter when the tragedy occurred.

Mr. Auston Blanks recently returned home from a one year tour of duty in Afghanistan as a US Army reservist. Local news channel ABC 15 has an interview with Mr. Blanks wife. Among those injured in the senseless violence was Blanks’ 10 year old son, Hunter.

To the family and friends of Ms. Johnson-Huddleston and Mr. Blanks, you have our deepest condolences.
