The department's AZ511 website appeared to indicate that the closure continued until Southern Avenue. ADOT said there was no estimated time to reopen the lanes, likely affecting many East Valley drivers' morning commutes.

Tempe Police say the incident began just before 2 a.m. at Main Event, near Priest Drive and Warner Road, and ended at a Cobblestone Auto Spa, near I-10 and Elliot Road, where a 25-year-old woman was found shot and killed. As a result, westbound I-10 is shut down at Warner Road. All traffic must exit the freeway.
