A pair of suspects are in jail for attempted murder following a May 26 incident in which several gunshots were fired at a house in the 100 block of South Fourth Street.
Iola Police Chief Jared Warner announced Tuesday Orion Nicholas, 20, LaHarpe, and Glenn Riddle, 20, Iola were arrested Monday after the incident was reported to authorities.
Officers received information about the gunshots on Sunday, Warner said.
An investigation revealed multiple bullet holes in the residence.
The victim, whose name was not released, was apparently at home when the incident occurred, but didn’t immediately report it, Warner said. He was not injured.
On top of the attempted first-degree murder charges requested against both, Warner said officers are seeking additional charges of criminal possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and criminal discharge of a firearm be filed against Nicholas.
Both are being held in the Allen County Jail.
Warner declined to speculate on how the pair knew the victim.
