CENTRALIA, Wash. — Law enforcement arrested a 19-year-old man accused of a drive-by shooting in Centralia.

The Centralia Police Department said around 10:30 p.m. on Sunday, there was a shooting in the 900 block of Harrison Avenue in Centralia.

A person was driving westbound on Harrison Avenue when the 19-year-old man allegedly pulled up next to him, waved a handgun, and fired multiple shots.
