Eric WoodsSurveillance footage and ballistic evidence helped track down a suspect in an East Brainerd car wash shooting that left two people injured and the business and some customer vehicles damaged last week.
Chattanooga police were called to the Storm Car Wash on Mackey Avenue just before 5 p.m. on Feb. 17. They found two men, 27 and 29, with gunshot wounds, according to a news release by the department.
One had been shot in the chest and needed surgery, and the other was shot in the lower left leg, according to Hamilton County court records. They were both taken to a local hospital by ambulance.
Eric Woods, 23, was arrested on Friday, two days later, in connection with the shooting.
At the crime scene, investigators arrived shortly after the victims were taken to the hospital and found several spent shell casings of varying calibers grouped in different areas throughout the parking lot and in the road, court records state.
