NICE – Authorities have arrested a Ukiah man and two female juveniles in connection with an alleged drive-by shooting Saturday.


Sheriff Rod Mitchell confirmed Sunday afternoon that a drive-by shooting had taken place Saturday night, but added that no one was injured.


Roberto Garcia, 20, was arrested early Sunday morning on felony counts of discharging a firearm from a vehicle, shooting at an unoccupied dwelling/vehicle and vandalism with property damage, according to Lake County Jail records.


“I can also confirm that two juveniles, both female, are in custody in relation to this offense,” said Mitchell.


Mitchell added, “We are not comfortable discussing motive publicly at this stage of the investigation.”


A “be on the lookout” for the suspects was issued across law enforcement radio frequencies about 11:18 p.m. Saturday in response to the shooting.


Mitchell said more information would be released Monday.


Garcia, whose occupation is listed as a server, remained in jail on $30,000 bail Sunday.
