TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) - The Tucson Police Department said one of the suspects in a drive-by shooting was arrested after turning himself in Wednesday night, May 18.

The shooting happened on the evening of April 28 near South Interstate 19 Frontage Road and West Valencia Road.

One of the suspects, a 16-year-old boy, was charged with three counts of aggravated assault, discharging a firearm at a structure, discharging a firearm within city limits and minor in possession of a firearm. He is being held at the Pima County Jail on a $50,000 bond. Police did not release his name.

Police also say they located the vehicle involved.

Police say there was an argument between the alleged victim and the suspect at a gas station near the I-19 Frontage Road.

Police say an occupant in the suspect vehicle fired one round at the alleged victim’s vehicle as they drove alongside each other near the I-19 overpass after leaving the gas station.

A juvenile teen passenger was hit in the neck and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
