As she got up to answer the door, she reported hearing the back door “crash” and saw Duran walk in the home.

Lovelace reported that Morgan confronted Duran and told him that he should not be at the home. Lovelace reported to the deputy that during the confrontation, Morgan alleged Duran told one of their daughters to “find some rope and hang herself with it” the night before.

The great-grandmother said that during the confrontation, a screwdriver was set on a nearby counter. She told deputies that Duran picked up the screwdriver and began stabbing Morgan.

Lovelace alleged that she got behind Duran and attempted to pull him off of Morgan, but failed, and Duran kept stabbing his wife.

Duran then went to a knife holder, grabbed a knife, and returned to continue stabbing Morgan, the great-grandmother told deputies. Lovelace said that she was still holding onto Duran as he began to leave the home.

Duran left the scene in a gold truck and drove to a residence on Skeet Drive. After his brother picked him up, Duran reportedly told him to drive to Rim Rock, Arizona in Yavapai County. The two were driving southbound on the I-17 near Rim Rock when he was picked up by officials.
