\nA suspect had been arrested in connection with a non-fatal shooting that happened around 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 25, at Iroquois High School on Taylor Boulevard, according to Louisville Metro Police Department.<\/p>\n
Police have arrested 41 year-old Gerrard Harris in connection with the shooting.<\/p>\n
On Saturday afternoon, officers responded to the track near the football field and located an adult man suffering from a gunshot wound to his left thigh.<\/p>\n
Officers said there were about 300 people at the school for a little league football game at the time.<\/p>\n
Harris was identified through witness interviews, surveillance video review, and evidence recovered during the investigation.<\/p>\n
Police said witnesses described the suspect as a Black male wearing an all-gray tracksuit, who was seen jumping a fence around the football field and fleeing.<\/p>\n
LMPD\u2019s K-9 unit and investigators used the suspect\u2019s path on surveillance video and recovered a gun in front of a home on Walter Avenue, according to police.<\/p>\n
Police say an officer later spotted a person matching the suspect description near Taylor Boulevard and Oakwood Avenue and detained him around 9:37 p.m.<\/p>\n
Police also say Harris resisted a gunshot residue test by trying to keep his hands closed and sitting on his hands.<\/p>\n
Harris is charged with Assault 1st Degree, Tampering with Physical Evidence, Disorderly Conduct 1st Degree, Wanton Endangerment 1st Degree, Unlawful possession of a weapon on school property, possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, obstructing governmental operations, and firearms discharge prohibited.<\/p>\n
The victim was transported to UofL Hospital for treatment.
