WARSAW, Ind. (WOWO): Police in Warsaw are searching for a man accused of shooting two people after a drug deal early Tuesday morning.

Police are searching for Russell Harty, 18. The Journal Gazette reports Harty is already wanted on a probation violation. He is considered armed and dangerous.

The man was treated and released, while the minor, who was shot in the shoulder, was taken to a hospital and later transferred to one in Fort Wayne. He was last listed in stable condition.
