The arrest comes after a shooting on May 13, in which one man was seriously injured. Before the shooting, HawkAlerts sent to the University of Iowa community wrote that two men with guns had been seen in the area of Iowa Avenue and North Gilbert Street.

More alerts followed stating that gunshots had been heard and that police believed the incident to be isolated. A Twitter post from UI Police Department was the first indication of a man being injured in the shooting.

On Sunday morning, police released a statement that stated police were called to the 300 block of Iowa Avenue near a parking ramp at 11:45 p.m. on Saturday after nearby officers reported hearing gunshots. 

Here they found a victim suffering from gunshot wounds, who was treated by first responders before being taken to a nearby hospital by the Johnson County Ambulance Service. The release concluded by stating that a suspect in the shooting was seen fleeing the area on foot with other people who were involved in an altercation that happened before the shooting.

According to today’s release, the police are continuing their investigation into Saturday’s shooting, and ask any members of the public with information or footage of the shooting to come forward.
