OGDEN — A house on Jackson Avenue was the target of a second shooting Tuesday afternoon after a shooting there Monday.
Around 12:15 p.m. Tuesday, a slender Hispanic male in his teens or early 20s, about 5 feet 6 inches tall, ran past the home in the 2200 block of Jackson Avenue and shot at the home five or six times, said Lt. Scott Conley.
No one was injured, and Conley said police were unable to find any damaged property. Police found five bullet casings from a Hi-Point .380 handgun around the home.
Witnesses saw the man run north to 22nd Street, then head west, but police have not found the shooter. However, officers found the handgun believed to have been used in the incident.
Conley said this shooting may have been in retaliation for the Monday evening shooting at the same location that resulted in the arrests of two gang members.
“It was probably something that is directly related to that, to the arrest of the two individuals,” Conley said.
Two men were arrested Monday night after police say they shot at a family member who lives in the Jackson Avenue home with three of his children.
Conley said the man was at a convenience store at 21st Street and Harrison Boulevard around 6:30 p.m. Monday with his three children, including a 2-year-old, a 3-year-old and a teenager. They were approached by Richard Tehero, 29, and Marquise Lucero, 19, and an argument ensued.
The man told police that Tehero was his relative but a rival gang member.
“The complainant did not want the situation to escalate with children present, so he drove away from the area,” Conley said.
The man told police he drove home, but was followed by a black Jeep Cherokee with Tehero and Lucero inside.
Conley said the man told his children to go inside, and when they opened the car doors to run into the house, the passenger of the Jeep fired three or four rounds at the man and his children. One round struck the man’s vehicle, but no one was injured.
The Jeep then drove south on Jackson Avenue and was spotted by an officer responding to the call.
The officer glanced up Darling Street and saw the empty Cherokee in the middle of the road. Officers searched the area and found Tehero and Lucero, who were arrested and booked into Weber County Jail on suspicion of four counts of attempted aggravated murder.
Conley said two detectives were assigned to the case, saying that while it may have been gang-related, there are other issues to be investigated. He said the shootings may be tied to an earlier incident that occurred this summer outside Ogden.
“There’s some underlying family issues,” he said. “I don’t think it’s just gang-related. There’s something else going on we need to identify.”

Two suspects arrested in Ogden drive-by shooting
OGDEN — Two men suspected in a drive-by shooting were arrested Monday night.
Richard Tehero, 29, and Marquise Lucero, 19, were arrested on suspicion of carrying out the attack Monday, though no one was injured.
A man who had been arguing with a family member who is a rival gang member at a gas station at 21st Street and Harrison Boulevard returned to his home on Jackson Avenue at approximately 6:30 p.m., Ogden Police Lt. Dave Tarran said.
“Just as he was pulling in the driveway, a dark-colored Cherokee drives by behind him. The front-seat passenger and the rear-seat passenger shoot in the direction of the car that he and three other people in,” Tarran said. Three or four rounds were fired, but only one struck the car.
An officer on Jackson Avenue, responding to the reported shooting, glanced up Darling Street and saw a Cherokee fitting the description, which later led to both arrests at a house on that street, Tarran said.
