BOISE, Idaho — The Boise Police Department has arrested a man suspected of shooting another man in a Southeast Boise parking lot early Monday.
21-year-old Bryson Grove faces a felony charge of aggravated battery. Boise Police officers took him into custody late Monday night. The police department had put out a request for information from the public earlier in the evening. The Ada County Sheriff's Office online arrest reports indicate Grove is from Idaho City.
The shooting was reported at about 3 a.m. Monday. Officers found a man with serious injuries in a parking lot near Broadway Avenue and Linden Street, and took him to the hospital. The victim's condition has not been released.
After officers secured the scene, the Boise Police Violent Crime Unit came to investigate and identified a potential suspect before police asked the public for help to locate him.
"Thank you to everyone who contacted Boise Police with tips and information," the Boise Police Department said in a news release late Monday.
A preliminary investigation found the victim and the suspect, Grove, were involved in an argument earlier Sunday night or Monday morning at a business on Broadway Avenue near Warren Street. Security camera photos showed the suspect inside a bar. According to Boise Police, the suspect and victim got into another confrontation in the parking lot at Broadway and Linden before the victim was shot.
Police say it does not appear the men knew each other before the incident.
The investigation continues. Anyone with information is asked to call Ada County Dispatch at 208-377-6790, or contact the Violent Crime detectives directly at 208-570-6261.
