Henderson police arrested two men in connection with a shooting incident that occurred last week.
According to information received Monday from Henderson Police Chief Marcus Barrow, officers were dispatched to the 200 block of E. Rockspring Street at 4:49 p.m. on Wednesday, July 12 in reference to gunshots being fired.
When officers arrived, they located a male identified as Tyrell Sneed, 32, of Franklinton.
Officers also were dispatched to less than a mile away to Henry Street in reference to another male subject involved in the incident. The second subject was identified as Tyriek Yarbrough, 23, of Hillsborough.
Upon further investigation by the department’s Criminal Investigations and Operations divisions, it was determined that both subjects were actively shooting at each other, which initiated the original call.
Both men were arrested and charged with going armed to the terror of the public, discharging a firearm in the city limits, discharging a firearm into an occupied vehicle, and assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill.
Sneed received a $500,000 secured bond; Yarbrough received a $550,000 secured bond. Both were remanded to the Vance County Detention Center.
