GREENWOOD, Ind. (WISH) — An 18-year-old Greenwood man was arrested Tuesday hours after a reported drive-by shooting, police said.

Jonah S. Henderson was preliminarily charged with attempted murder. A news release from the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office said Henderson, the suspected shooter, was being held at the Johnson County Jail on a $40,000 cash bond.

Deputies say the shooting occurred about 11:30 a.m. Tuesday in the 5000 block of Old Smith Valley Road. That’s just off Morgantown Road.

No one was injured by the gunfire. Multiple leads from information sent out the public on Tuesday plus witnesses to the shooting led police to Henderson, the sheriff’s office said.

Sheriff Duane E. Burgess told News 8 the other person police were seeking has been identified and located and is a juvenile.

Several police agencies had been looking for a vehicle described as a “2005-2014 tan/beige Toyota Camry, with a donut tire on front drivers side.”

Investigators said two people were inside the vehicle. The driver was described as a white male wearing a ball cap and a white and blue shirt. The other person, believed to be the shooter, was described as a white male with blue eyes and a “music note tattoo” on his neck.

Detectives on Tuesday night were continuing to interview witnesses.
