An Indiana State Police detective was in the right place at the right time Friday afternoon to arrest an alleged interstate shooter near Greenwood.

Just after 11 a.m. Friday, Indiana State Police dispatchers received an emergency 911 call about shots being fired on I-65 northbound near the 97-mile marker. The victim was able to provide a good description of the suspect's vehicle.

Multiple troopers rapidly deployed to the area and strategically positioned themselves to intercept the suspect vehicle. An ISP detective happened to be on I-65 in an unmarked vehicle near the location of the call. The detective located the suspect vehicle, a white Nissan, on I-65 northbound at the 107-mile marker. He followed the vehicle until other troopers caught up and together they pulled over the suspect. The Nissan was occupied by a driver and a passenger, who were both taken into custody. 

Preliminary investigation determined the driver of the Nissan allegedly fired shots at the occupants of a Subaru while driving on I-65. There were no injuries reported however investigators located damage consistent with bullet holes in the victim's vehicle.

Investigators requested a search warrant for the suspect's vehicle and it was granted by a Johnson County judge. A search of the vehicle revealed a handgun and marijuana. 

The driver, Nasier Johnson, 24, of Lorain, Ohio, was arrested on the preliminary charges of Criminal Recklessness, Intimidation and Possession of Marijuana.

The passenger, Armani Crooks, 20, of Lorain, Ohio, was arrested for Possession of Marijuana.

Both suspects were transported to the Johnson County Jail and incarcerated.
