Four arrested after argument turns into car chase and gunfight

Three Eastpoint men and one juvenile have been charged with shooting into an occupied vehicle and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after an argument turned in to a gunfight.

The Franklin County sheriff’s department said the incident happened on February the 7th on Twin Lakes Road in Eastpoint.

There was an argument between people in two vehicles, a blue Toyota tundra and a red Toyota tundra – that led to a chase down Twin Lakes Road. During the chase, several shots were fired from a .22 caliber semi-automatic rifle, a 12 gauge shotgun and a co2 pellet pistol.

Most of the shots didn’t hit anything, but Paul Zachary Sanders, who was a passenger in the blue Toyota, was hit by one of the pellets, and the tailgate of the red Toyota was hit by a shotgun blast. Luckily none of the seven people in the red truck was injured.
After investigating the incident over the past few weeks, police arrested Jordan Kyle Richards, Paul Zachary Sanders, and Johnny Alan Turner.

All three are 20 years old and all live in Eastpoint.

Police also arrested an juvenile in the case.
