Tucson police strike ends after council approves pay deal
A six day walkout by 90 percent of Tucson police and fire personnel ended as the city council narrowly approved a 1.5 percent raise for sergeants and higher, 5 percent for other officers and a cost of living raise up to 4.00 percent next July.
