Phoenix kidnapping suspect to face more charges after victim dies

PHOENIX — The man who allegedly shot three men and kidnapped his girlfriend last week will face additional charges following the death of one of the victims Saturday night.

Phoenix police said Sunday that Miireux-Michael Begaii, 22, died in a hospital from his injuries.

Eddison Jesus Noyola, 27, was caught in a Glendale neighborhood Friday along with his girlfriend Andrea Dixon, authorities said.

Dixon was unharmed and both were taken into custody without incident.

Noyola was charged with attempted first-degree murder, burglary, kidnapping and aggravated assault, but police said Sunday that he will face additional charges following Begaii’s death.

Noyola had last been seen around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday near 27th Avenue and Bethany Home Road in Phoenix, where he allegedly shot an unidentified male and kidnapped Dixon, 30.

Phoenix police said based on his actions — he allegedly stole a gun and a car from family members in Glendale — they believed he was going to hurt himself and Dixon.

According to court documents, he told his sister that Dixon had not been faithful and he was going to cut her hands off.

That car was found near 15th Avenue and Polk Street on Wednesday afternoon.

Family members weren’t hurt but police said two men were shot several miles away in Phoenix and then a third was shot about 20 minutes later at another location in Phoenix.

Court documents showed that the Phoenix victims were shot in the head, neck and right knee.

The two men were hospitalized in critical condition, but the victim who was shot in the head was not expected to survive his injuries.

It is unclear if Begaii was the victim who was shot in the head.

Noyola and Dixon were found in a car authorities said had been stolen in the West Valley city.

Noyola will appear in court later this month.
