Kennewick police arrested four Pasco men just two hours after the group allegedly committed a drive-by shooting early Saturday.

Police was called to the corner of Kennewick Avenue and Yelm Street just before 2 a.m. for a reported drive-by shooting, said Ron Salter, Kennewick Police.

A group of Kennewick residents traveling together in a vehicle told officers that someone had fired two shots at them from another vehicle.

At about 4 a.m., police noticed a vehicle fitting the description given earlier traveling toward Pasco. Officers arrested Martin Perez Garcia, 21, Juan Salas, 23, Gorge Acevado, 21, and a 15-year-old male.

The gun used in the incident was recovered.

The people whose car had been fired on were not injured.
