Here are the top stories today in Scottsdale:

1. The Salt River Police Department has identified the man who was found dead in a Scottsdale Red Robin restaurant earlier this week. The man, Joseph Doyle, was an employee of the restaurant located just off of Talking Stick Way in the Scottsdale Pavilions. His body was found dead by police during a protective sweep around 9 a.m. on Sunday morning after a suspected robbery was reported. Detectives are asking anyone with information to call 480- 850-9230. (Arizona's Family)
2. Celebrity chef Guy Fieri just opened his first brick-and-mortar restaurant in Arizona! The "Dinners, Drive-ins and Dives" host announced the grand opening for Guy Fieri's Downtown Phoenix Kitchen + Bar is June 21 in metro Phoenix. Before the grand opening, chef Fieri shared some of his favorite restaurants in the area, including five eateries here in Scottsdale! (S. G. E.)
3. This week, the Scottsdale Police Department received an emergency 911 call for a medical incident in a hotel parking lot. Officer Mike Yavello responded and observed a man on the ground who was not breathing. Officer Yavello immediately began chest compressions until medical personnel arrived. The victim began responding and "took a turn for the better" before their arrival at the hospital. The SFD Captain and his crew unanimously credited the victim's recovery to Officer Yavello's initial CPR efforts. (Scottsdale Police Department)
