The Paducah Police Department was called after several people reported seeing a man fire three shots at another man in an alley on November 5.
Numerous people sitting in a drive-thru allegedly saw the incident and were able to identify the shooter by his first name. Officers were able to get a description of the man, and was spotted a short time later fleeing on foot.
Officers were able to catch the suspect, who was identified as 20-year-old William R. Moore, and found a handgun in a trash can nearby.
Moore is being charged with three counts of first-degree wanton endangerment, third-degree criminal mischief, second-degree fleeing or evading, and tampering with physical evidence.
Moore was lodged in the McCracken County Jail.
