After receiving a search warrant two days later, police found 198 decks of heroin and three handguns inside -- a .32-caliber, .40-caliber and a .45-caliber.
Then, after police found the guns and drugs, warrants were issued for Clark's arrest and officers found him on Jersey Street Thursday at 2 p.m., Ramos said.
Clark is not charged with shooting any of the victims.
The shooting occurred on Friday June 24 at about 9 p.m. on the 100 block of Winder Avenue, near Walnut Avenue.
A 19-year-old woman was shot in the eye, a 38-year-old woman was shot in the neck and a 20-year-old man had a wrist injury. Police said a bullet had just grazed his arm.
Clark is charged with possessing the handguns, drug possession and intent to distribute drugs within 1,000 feet of a school and 500 feet of a park.
Jennings will have the same charges added to the six counts of attempted homicide and weapon offenses he already faces.
