Austin shooting spree: 3 suspects arrested, full timeline released
The Austin Police Department has released a full timeline of events in connection with a shooting spree across Austin.
Three suspects were arrested, which included two teens, a 15-and 16-year-old.
APD released the identity of the third suspect, 17-year-old Cristian Mondragon-Fajardo.
During a press conference, Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis said a string of shootings, vehicle thefts and robberies happened across South and East Austin from May 16 and 17.
APD said at least 12 separate shootings are being investigated. The shootings struck apartment buildings, homes, businesses and two Austin Fire Department stations.
Authorities said the 17-year-old, Cristian Mondragon-Fajardo, had an active warrant for stealing a firearm from the same store where the 15-year-old allegedly stole another gun Saturday. Investigators believe the suspects stole more than four vehicles during the spree and may have switched vehicles multiple times.
