Police served the warrant at around 7:54 p.m. on Monday, May 6, where they found Metz inside the home on West Buffalo Street, and were arrested without incident.

The warrant stems from a shooting that took place on Dec. 9 around 9:30 p.m. in the 100 block of N. Plain St in Ithaca.

Police say that further arrests will be coming as the investigation develops.

Metz was processed and taken to the Tompkins County Jail where he awaits further proceedings.
