Two Teens Arrested For Firing Gun Into Cathedral City Home

Two teenagers were taken into custody late Monday night after police found them carrying a handgun and several bullets.

Police responded to several 911 calls reporting gunshots in the area of Susan Drive and Avenida Maravilla. When officers got to the area, they found a group of three teenagers, two males, one female, who matched the description given by callers.

No one was injured.

The names of the two male teenager taken into custody are being withheld. The 15-year-old female was released to her parents, and won’t face charges right now.
