Yuma man arrested for aggravated assault
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - The Yuma County Sheriff's Office (YCSO) says they arrested a man for aggravated assault over the weekend.
According to a press release, deputies responded to the area of S. Avenue C and W. Linda Lane, near the Love of Grace Church, at around 8:06 a.m. Sunday after receiving reports of someone shooting a firearm.
Upon arrival, YCSO says deputies found "multiple spent casings in the roadway" and damage to an occupied home.
YCSO says their Criminal Investigations Bureau then responded and took over the investigation, leading to them identifying the suspect and said the shooting took place from a home "toward a passing vehicle."
The suspect, an 18-year-old man from Yuma, was arrested and booked into the Yuma County Detention Center on three counts of endangerment, and three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, disorderly conduct with weapons and criminal damage.
No injuries have been reported, but YCSO says they're looking to identify any additional victims in the case.
