Captain Zach Fields

The Central Arizona Fire and Medical Authority is saddened to announce the passing of Captain Zach Fields on 2 October 2022 at his home in Surprise, Arizona. Captain Fields was a reserve firefighter for one year before being promoted to a full-time position. His last assignment was as the B-Shift Captain on Engine 54 serving Dewey-Humboldt and Prescott Valley.

Zach had a smile that lit up a room and a caring spirit that drew people to him. He was a beloved member of our Agency whose legacy will live on despite his physical absence.

Our focus today, and in the coming days, is to support his family along with our CAFMA family as we work through this very difficult time.

No further details are being released at this time, but funeral arrangements are to follow in the coming days. Thank you to all departments, individuals, and others for your condolences and acts of kindness.

If you or someone you love needs help, please reach out. There are many avenues available to seek assistance.

Arizona Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt says he had his heart shocked into rhythm after going into atrial fibrillation this week, a health scare that won't sideline him Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.

The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year tweeted Sunday, “I was just told somebody leaked some personal information about me and it’s going to be reported on today. I went into A-Fib on Wednesday, had my heart shocked back into rhythm on Thursday and I’m playing today. That’s it.”
