PORTSMOUTH, Va. — A third suspect connected with a shooting on Charleston Avenue that led to a citywide police chase has been arrested Friday, according to Portsmouth police.
Two other suspects were arrested Thursday afternoon after fleeing from police and sustaining minor injuries in a crash at the intersection of Deep Creek Boulevard and Maxwell Avenue, police stated.
The names of the suspects were withheld because a minor was involved in the incidents, police said. Charges are pending against all three suspects.
This comes after officers went to a local hospital in response to a call about a person who walked in with a gunshot wound, police stated.
At the hospital, police said officers learned that a man was shot by a passenger in a dark gray Jeep in the 1700 block of Charleston Ave.
Detectives found the car around 4:19 p.m., leading to a citywide police chase. The car crashed into another vehicle, injuring a woman and a girl. Police did not provide the ages of the suspects.
The incidents are still under investigation.
