Four teens and a 28 year old man were arrested on April 19, when police responded to a complaint that there were people drinking on the property of a local elementary school. The first call was placed at 11PM. The second call came only minutes later when a caller reported that there were two kids "tagging" or painting graffiti on the property.

When police arrived, the three officers approached two of the suspects who then fled in opposite directions. One officer, who pursued one of the suspects alone, was rounding a corner when the suspect jumped out at the officer and held out his hand. The officer, fearing for his life shot the suspect through the extended wrist.

The 28 year old man (who what shot) had a blood alcohol level of .374, an hour after the shooting.

The investigation led police to the four juveniles who were with the man at the school.

In addition to drinking and huffing, the four juveniles were responsible for an estimated $10,000 in damages to the property.
