The last of three people suspected of targeting an Eagan home with gunfire was arrested Saturday morning, police said.
Arrested in the Friday night shooting in the 4500 block of Whitetail Way were a 20-year-old Eagan man, an 18-year-old Eagan woman and a 21-year-old Inver Grove Heights man. They remain jailed pending charges.
According to police:
A resident told police that three people came to the home shortly after 10:30 pm. and threatened to shoot him. Several shots were fired at the house, but no one was injured and the trio fled in a car.
An officer located and stopped the car not far away with three people inside. During the stop, one of the three threw a gun from the vehicle. Two of the suspects were arrested, but the 20-year-old fled on foot. The gun was quickly recovered.
About 8 a.m. Saturday, police found and arrested the man at an Eagan home.
