Original: Investigation ongoing: One person hospitalized after several shots fired at Salina neighborhood
According to the Salina Police Department (SPD), officers responded to the 1100 block of W. Republic due reports of 10-20 shots had been fired.
Witnesses saw a gray Dodge Charger fleeing the scene. A tag for that vehicle was developed, and the FLOCK System was utilized. It was determined the vehicle was around 9th and I-70.
Saline County Deputies arrived in the area and located the vehicle at the Pilot gas station, 1944 N 9th.
The driver of that vehicle, 26-year-old Alex Ramos-Guebara of Salina, was taken into custody without incident.
The victim, a 21-year-old male, who was an occupant of a residence in the 1100 block of W. Republic was transported to the Salina Regional Health Center by private vehicle with two non-life-threatening gunshot wounds to his lower body.
SPD with the assistance of the Saline County Sheriff’s Office were able to determine through the course of the investigation that Ramos-Guebara arrived at the residence, where he kicked in the door.
The victim, who does not live at the residence, along with other occupants pushed Ramos-Guebara out of the residence when he then retrieved a gun from his vehicle and approached the victim.
Ramos-Guebara began to aim the gun at the victim, who grabbed the gun as Ramos-Guebara began firing. The victim was shot twice in the lower body, as most of the shots went into the ground.
The gun was recovered on scene.
