The group proceeded to journey across the state border into Arizona, where they proceeded with additional shootings, including one involving a police officer. The trio of accused individuals were apprehended after their vehicle overturned. Prosecutors alleged that Lewis was behind the wheel while the two siblings fired recklessly from the windows of the moving car.
Christopher McDonnell was handed down a severe sentence by Clark County District Judge Tierra Jones, being sentenced to a minimum of 100 years in prison. The shooting spree eventually came to a halt near Parker, Arizona, after a pursuit which involved officers from the Arizona Department of Public Safety. It culminated in a car collision with a vehicle bearing a Texas license plate and Shawn McDonnell sustaining injuries from troopers wielding rifles, according to law enforcement authorities.
Shawn McDonnell and Lewis are currently awaiting trial as the legal proceedings continue. The original report was contributed by The Associated Press.
