The grand opening of Iconic Tire & Service Center at 19945 N. John Wayne Parkway was a huge success. “Forty years in this business, I’ve never seen a store take off the way this one did. I mean, it was just amazing,” CEO Jeff Darrow told InMaricopa at the time. The Darrow family expected a busy opening but quickly realized demand in Maricopa was even higher than they anticipated. Initially short-staffed, the shop added more employees by October to keep up with the growing number of customers.

Nate Ford, a 16-year-old baseball and football player at Maricopa High School, was killed when his pickup truck collided with a cattle truck on State Route 347 near Farrell Road. His death became a rallying point for MHS athletics throughout the school year. The Rams football team finished the season 7-3, while many students, staff and community members showed their support by wearing #StateForNate apparel.

The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office arrested an Ak-Chin Village man accused of brutally murdering another man and leaving the body in a county-owned gravel pit. One hot day, county employees near Farrell and Hidden Valley Roads discovered the body and alerted authorities. Terrence Peters, 22, admitted to drinking with the victim, 45-year-old Charles Pablo, before a fight broke out. Peters reportedly knocked Pablo down and then threw large rocks at him until he died. Peters was jailed on first-degree murder charges and later pleaded guilty to second-degree murder.

While the South braced for Hurricane Katrina, Maricopa faced its own flood threat. Severe storms in northern Mexico and Tucson pushed flood-stage waters into the Santa Cruz River, forcing a traffic detour at the Santa Rosa Wash. The flood never reached Maricopa, but the scare led the Red Cross to recruit local volunteers for future disasters. “Because of the growth in Pinal County, and Maricopa in particular, we’re looking to boost our volunteer base and expand our reach by training more people,” said a Red Cross representative at the time.
