Iowa City Police have arrested a suspect in a shooting last year at the Town & Campus Apartments.
22-year-old Denzel Wilson of Marion was booked into the Johnson County Jail just before 2pm Tuesday. According to arrest records, Wilson was part of a large altercation at the Arthur Street complex just before 11:30pm on July 22nd. Police say Wilson pulled out a firearm and fired into the crowd, striking a woman in the process. Video evidence and witness accounts indicate Wilson was the only person seen firing a gun.
The victim was transported by ambulance to the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics with non-life-threatening injuries. Police say she refused to cooperate with the investigation.
A warrant was issued for Wilson’s arrest last January. He’s charged with Dominion or Control of a Firearm as a Felon. Wilson was convicted on a Carrying Weapons charge in 2019, and has other cases pending in Linn and Black Hawk counties.
