The Selma Police Department is looking for the man allegedly responsible for a nightclub shooting on Easter Sunday that injured a 30-year-old Selma woman.

The police department has issued an arrest warrant for 22-year-old Alphonso Juawann Lewis on attempted murder charges.

According to Lt. Curtis Muhannad, the shooting happened Sunday, April 5 outside of a nightclub on the 100 block of Washington Street.

“The shooting occurred after an altercation occurred between Mr. Lewis and a male subject that the victim was having a conversation with,” Muhannad said. “Mr. Lewis and other subjects grabbed firearms from a nearby vehicle and began shooting at the male subject, who took off running and was being chased.”

The man that was targeted by Lewis was able to get away, Muhannad said, but the 30-year-old female was in the line of fire.

“Mr. Lewis shot the victim with an assault rifle in her left arm pit, and a second shot struck the ground near her, in which fragments pierced her left leg,” Muhannad said.

According to Muhannad, investigators believe the shooting was related to an ongoing rivalry between two “criminal elements.”

“The shooting is still under investigation, and other warrants for arrest are expected,” Muhannad said.

Lewis is described as being 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs approximately 163 pounds.

“Alphonso Juawann Lewis is considered extremely armed and dangerous,” Muhannad said.

“He is to be approached with necessary cautions.”

The police department is asking for anyone with information on the case to call Crime Stoppers at 874-2588.
