Three people were arrested after a shooting in Evansville. Police were called out to 206 Jefferson Avenue around 2:00 Wednesday morning by a woman who called to say she was shot during a robbery. By the time police got there, the three suspects were gone. Witnesses identified one of the suspects as Quentin Phipps. They found him hiding in an apartment at the Brownstone on 2nd Street. They also identified and arrested the two other suspects, Brittany Pirtle, and Donald Walker at the apartment. Officers put Phipps in the police car in handcuffs and he crawled over the seat, and started to drive off with the car. Then Phipps crashed the car into a light pole at the Donaldson Apartments, jumped out and ran, but was arrested very soon after that. All three face charges of attempted murder and robbery.
