Three men were arrested after a shooting incident Thursday night at an apartment complex in Arlington.
Just before 7 p.m. Thursday, Arlington police responded to a shooting call at Arlington Memorial Hospital, where they learned a woman came to the hospital with a non-life threatening gunshot wound, police said.
One round struck a security guard causing minor injury, Arlington police said. Both security guards returned fire and the officer discharged their firearm toward the suspects.
According to police, none of the shots fired by the security guards or police officer hit anyone and whoever was firing at them escaped.
The suspects fled the apartment complex in a white Cadillac XTS and were located a short time later after initially fleeing officers during an attempted traffic stop, police said.
Police arrested 31-year-old Felix Barrientos, 28-year-old Juan Magallanes and 24-year-old David Garcia. Barrientos was charged with fleeing a police officer because he was driving when the traffic stop was initiated; Magallanes and Garcia were both charged with discharge of a firearm in certain municipalities.
