KENNER, La. ( WGNO ) — A Kenner teenager is in custody after allegedly shooting at a 15-year-old on Saturday, June 1.

According to the Kenner Police Department, the incident took place in the 2600 block of Acron Street and could have “stemmed from a disagreement.” Detectives said the 15-year-old was shot at multiple times, but no injuries were reported.

In the investigation, KPD officers obtained enough evidence to receive an arrest warrant for 17-year-old Quincy Ardon.

On Wednesday, June 12, officers found Ardon in the 500 block of 27th Street but he escaped before he could be arrested. He was later found in a LaPlace home and taken into custody.

According to the KPD, a gun was reportedly recovered at the residence which is “believed to have been used during the shooting.”

Ardon was charged with resisting arrest and attempted second-degree murder.
