Three of five suspects Chatham-Kent police say are tied to a Tuesday night shooting on Harvey Street in Chatham are in custody.
Police say thanks to the public’s assistance, Brianna Gardiner, 18, of Cambridge, Rylie DeJonge-Vandusen, 19, of London, and a 17-year-old Cambridge resident were all arrested with links to the shooting of two people about 6 p.m. Tuesday on Harvey Street.
The two people were taken to hospital, while a dog was killed. Police say a third person was shot at, but not hit in the confrontation.
Gardiner, arrested Jan. 27, is charged with three counts of attempted murder. She was held in custody pending a bail hearing and released with a future court date of Feb. 26.
DeJonge-Vandusen got cuffed two days later, and is also charged with three counts of attempted murder. She was held in custody pending a bail hearing and has been remanded with a future court date of Feb. 1.
