One adult and three juveniles face charges of shooting into an occupied vehicle and a fourth person is at large after an argument authorities believe began in the county and spread into the city.
Vicksburg police Lt.Troy Kimble said police received a call through 911 about 6:20 p.m. about a chase in the 2000 block of Indiana Avenue and North Frontage Road. A man said he came home to find several people at his home on China Grove Road and an argument began that resulted in shots being fired at him. The group left the home and the man followed them, calling 911 as he chased them.
He said the car the man was chasing was stopped by police at the intersection of Indiana and North Frontage Road. Officers arrested Nicholas Brown, 24, no address available, and three juveniles who were passengers in the car. A fourth man in the car, Tyree Barnett, 18, fled the scene on foot, Kimble said.
He said police and Warren County sheriff’s investigators are investigating the incident.
Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace said county charges may be filed against the people involved pending further investigation.
