Full Notification

Evansville Police have arrested 17 year old DEANDREA JONES on charges related to the shooting that injured one person earlier today. JONES has already been permanently waived to adult court due to prior criminal activity so he will be charged as an adult in this case.
Police were called to the 900 block of Judson at 11:50 for a report of a person being shot. The victim was walking with another person when they were approached by JONES. JONES allegedly fired several shots from a handgun and then fled on foot. One person was shot in the shoulder during the incident. JONES was identified as a suspect and was taken into custody without incident at his home in the 600 block of Madison.
Investigators obtained a search warrant for the home and recovered a stolen handgun during their search. They have yet to determine if it was the gun used in the shooting.
JONES is expected to face Attempted Murder and Possession of a Stolen Firearm charges and will be booked into the Vanderburgh County Jail this evening. No booking photo is available at this time.
The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to cal EPD or WeTip.

Suspects are innocent until proven guilty.
