The alleged gunmen then fled on foot to an awaiting vehicle.
Three victims — two men, ages 44 and 48, and a 41-year-old woman — sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were taken via private vehicles to medical facilities in serious but stable condition.
Police arrested Daniel on Wednesday in connection with the shooting. The other two suspects remain at-large.
