A Parsons man is in custody after eluding police for close to 48 hours.

 Parsons officials say 20-year-old 'Duke' Herman was found and arrested in the Parsons Village apartment complex at 1100 South 13th Street. Herman is the main suspect in the shooting incident in the 3100 Block of Grand Avenue on Wednesday.

 After Herman refused to exit, a Parsons Police Entry Team entered just after 10:00 p.m. last night. Herman was successfully taken into custody without injury. He was transported to the Parsons Police Lock-up to be evaluated by EMS. During the incident Wednesday, Herman sustained a possible gunshot wound to his hand from residents who fired back at him. The injury was not life threatening.

 Parsons Police are seeking charges of three counts of attempted 1st degree murder, criminal discharge of a firearm at an occupied dwelling, and aggravated endangerment of a child.

 Parsons Police Chief Robert Spinks thanks the extra staff and the 35 apartment residents for their help in the apprehension of Herman.
