Ferguson was found dead inside Toone’s home near Higley and Guadalupe roads.

Officials later found Toone at a nearby home where he attempted suicide. He was taken to the hospital for treatment and was ultimately arrested Monday in connection to her death.

Toone faces one count of second-degree murder. He was booked into the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office jail. No other details on the incident have been released.
