Lenor was near the above address and fired multiple shots at passing vehicles. Lenor fired a shot at Mr. Campbell’s vehicle which shattered the driver’s side window and struck Campbell in the chest. The suspect then fired a shot toward at least two other vehicles; windows but did not strike the drivers. One of the drivers witnessed Lenor walk into a house in the 7400 block of Fawnridge Drive.
As officers arrived on scene, the witness directed them to the residence. Officers set up a perimeter and were able to convince Lenor to exit the residence. Lenor was taken into custody and positively identified by witnesses as the person who fired at their vehicles. Officers also recovered two handguns, one of which was used in the shooting, and ammunition inside the residence. Lenor also admitted to having a semi-automatic rifle with ammunition. He was subsequently charged for his role in the shooting.
