BOISE, Idaho — The Boise Police Department arrested a 19-year-old man on Wednesday in connection to a shooting that happened in a Boise neighborhood. No one was injured in the shooting, but several shots did hit one home.

Officers responded to reports of a suspect firing a gun several times at a home with people inside before leaving the scene in a vehicle. According to investigators, as the suspect drove away he crashed into a nearby trailer and continued driving.

The shooting happened at about 3:15 p.m. Wednesday in the area of Fairview Avenue and Cloverdale Road. 

When officers arrived at the home, they found no one was injured and then began collecting evidence and securing the scene. Police say based on the evidence, 19-year-old Dimitri Hanian of Meridian was their key suspect.

At about 3:45 p.m., officers found Hanian and his vehicle, a 2010 Chrysler 300, near Brynwood Drive and Crestwood drives.

Investigators believe Hanian and the residents of the home knew each other.

Boise police are also trying to figure out if Hanian is connected to a road rage incident that was also reported at about the same time as the shooting. The incident happened between a driver on Cloverdale Road and a man driving north from Fairview Avenue.

A witness reported that a man driving a 2010 Chrysler 300 got out of his car with a black handgun and confronted the other driver.

The other driver was in a 2000s Chevy truck with two KTM motorcycle in the bed.
