A man wanted in connection with a Monday night shooting near the University of Arizona campus was arrested Wednesday night in Coolidge.

Marcus G. Webster, 30, was taken into custody by federal marshals and the Coolidge Police Department, said Sgt. Kimberly Bay, a Tucson Police Department spokeswoman.

An arrest warrant was issued for Webster who is one of three suspects connected to the shooting at a house across the street from the UA Police Department headquarters, said authorities.

He was last seen near Coolidge and was considered to be armed and dangerous.Β 

It's unclear if any other suspects have been identified.

The maroon 2015 Nissan Altima associated with the shooting was located Tuesday by police, said Officer Daniel Lucas, a Tucson Police Department spokesman.

Investigators did not release where or under what circumstances the vehicle was found.

The other two men officers also were looking for are between 20 and 30 years old. Webster and the two men were seen leaving the scene in the Altima, Lucas said.

Investigators ask that anyone with information about the shooting, or the other two men call 911 or 88-CRIME.

Shortly before 10 p.m. Monday night, police were dispatched to the 1000 block of North Campbell Avenue to a reported shooting, said Sgt. Kimberly Bay, a TPD spokeswoman.

Detectives learned that a woman and man associated with the residence had gotten into a confrontation in the front yard with three men, during which the woman was shot, Bay said.

Officers with the University of Arizona Police Department heard the screams from the station, and responded to the scene. They rendered first aid until Tucson Fire Department paramedics arrived and transported the woman to a hospital, Bay said.

The victim is in serious condition, but is expected to survive. No other injuries were reported.

The shooting appears to be drug-related, and has nothing to do with the UA, Bay said, although it's unknown if any of the people who were at the home are students.
