*****UPDATED INFORMATION 10/12/2019*****

 Det. Eric McCrady and other Investigators continued to work on the case throughout the night and into the day on October 10, 2019. 

Detectives spoke with witnesses and an additional victim. A resident of the 800 blk. N. Queen St. had been inside his home at the time of the shooting. A round that had been fired by the suspect had entered that residence through a window and missed striking the resident's head by a narrow margin. 

Detectives were told that the initial incident was a fight between (2) females. During the fight a male, identified as Tyree Rocha M/21, approached another male and asked his name. When told the name, Rocha pulled out a handgun and shot the victim several times. It is believed that Rocha is an ex-boyfriend to one of the female combatants and that the victim is the current boyfriend of that same female. 

The victim was taken to the hospital by private vehicle and treated for his injuries. The victim remains in stable condition and is expected to survive his injuries.

Det. McCrady consulted with the Lancaster District Attorney's Office and charges were approved. Det. McCrady filed a Criminal Complaint against Rocha for Criminal Attempt- Homicide, Persons Not To Possess (etc.) Firearms, Discharge of Firearm Into Occupied Structure, (5) Counts Recklessly Endangering Another Person and Firearms Not To Be Carried Without a License. 

Rocha is not in custody as of the time of this release and a warrant has been issued for his arrest. The firearm used in this incident has not been recovered.
