OGDEN — Police on Wednesday arrested a woman suspected of obstruction of justice in the aftermath of a car-to-car fatal shooting near a busy intersection Tuesday.

Several persons of interest also were in custody and there is no ongoing threat to the public, the Ogden Police Department said later Wednesday in a news release.

Multiple callers reported seeing someone shooting a firearm at another vehicle at 4:57 p.m., the Ogden Police Department said in a social media post. The suspected shooter’s car fled the scene, in the area of Harrison Boulevard and 12th Street.

Officers found the victim, a 20-year-old man, had suffered a gunshot wound and he was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The victim’s identity and further details of the shooting were not given.

According to a probable cause statement, police arrested Chelci Seber, 21, at about 3 a.m. Wednesday on suspicion of second-degree felony obstruction of justice related to the shooting.

Police said in the affidavit that witnesses reported a dark-colored passenger car pulled up to another vehicle and someone in the first car fired several shots at the man. The car then sped away.

Investigators used video surveillance footage of the shooting and from elsewhere in the city to identify the possible suspect vehicle, registered to Seber. Police then found Seber, the car and other persons of interest at a home with the same address as that listed on the car’s registration, the arrest affidavit said.

The car had body damage similar to that seen on the car in the video evidence, and the car had bullet casings matching evidence at the shooting scene, the arrest affidavit said. Officers said they found Seber and the others hiding in a motorhome on the property.

The arrest affidavit said police have evidence that Seber was in the vehicle at the time of the shooting and that more charges in the case were expected.

Seber was ordered held in the Weber County Jail without bail.
