  The first responding officers discovered an overturned vehicle on the north side of the roadway on Covert Ave. They discovered there were two gunshot victims that were inside the vehicle at the time of the accident. Both victims suffered gunshot wounds to their lower extremities. 

  Officers immediately rendered aid to the victims by applying tourniquets until an ambulance could arrive and give further medical assistance. The victims were then transported to the hospital where they are expected to survive their injuries. 

  After tracking down several leads, the detective office was able to obtain an arrest warrant for Paje Capone Diaz (22) for attempted murder in this case.  The Evansville Viper Unit served the warrant on Diaz on June 14. He is currently placed at the Vanderburgh County Correction Center.  Â
