The man believed to have pulled the trigger in a Wednesday morning drive-by shooting is now in police custody, according to a Juneau Police Department.
Officers arrested Jose Antonio Delgado, 47, at 3:57 p.m. today on Salmon Creek Lane on a $20,000 warrant. According to an affidavit from the Juneau District Attorney’s office, Delgado is charged with first-degree misconduct involving weapons, a Class A felony punishable up to 20 years in prison; third-degree misconduct involving weapons, a Class C felony punishable up to five years in prison; and three counts of third-degree assault, a class C felony punishable up to five years in prison.
Delgado, along with Sky Stubblefield, 25, was named as a person of interest tied to the firing of a single gunshot from a moving vehicle near Fourth Street at approximately 12:59 a.m. Wednesday.
Lt. David Campbell said Wednesday by phone that the incident stemmed from an argument over property, now known to be a dog.
Officers already in the area for another case were able to respond in less than a minute and locate the vehicle, but it was unoccupied by then. Police reported that no one was injured during the shooting. The bullet traveled through the front window of a house, through a lamp and lodged into a wall.
Stubblefield made her first appearance in court today for charges of first-degree aiding and abetting misconduct involving weapons, a felony that has a maximum possible punishment of 10 years in prison; first-degree failure to stop at the direction of a peace officer, a felony that can carry up to five years in prison; contempt of court for failing to report to jail on a previous case and a bench warrant for failure to comply with conditions of probation.
