Officers arrived to find one victim who had been shot. The victim was transported to North Mississippi Medical Center; his condition is unknown at this time.
Witness at the scene advised the suspect had run north of the apartment complex. A Tupelo Police K-9 officer tracked and apprehended the suspect hiding in the wooded area behind the complex.
The suspect is Martinez Greg Hughes, 21, of 107 Louise Drive/Anthony Street, Verona.
Hughes was charged with aggravated assault and his bond was set at $50,000 after an arraignment today in Lee County Justice court.
The weapon recovered was a .380 semi-automatic that had been reported stolen from New Albany.
