Police arrested two men on Winter Street following the pursuit of a vehicle sought in connection with a Lynn shooting that left a woman in critical condition.

Lynn Police Lt. Michael Kmiec reported that at 8:39 p.m. on April 7, officers were dispatched to 33 Whiting St. in Lynn for a report of a female who had been shot.

Responding officers found the 29-year-old female victim being treated by civilians for multiple gunshot wounds, Kmiec said.

Lynn police officers and firefighters treated the victim and she was transported to Mass General Hospital. The victim is in critical condition but expected to survive, Kmiec said.

According to Lynn Police, a witness followed the suspect vehicle as it fled Whiting Street and was able to provide dispatchers with its location. Several Lynn units attempted to stop the suspect vehicle, but the driver refused to stop and led the officers on a pursuit into Saugus.

Police pursued the vehicle onto Webb Place in Saugus, where three suspects fled on foot, Kmiec said.

Lynn and Saugus police officers took two of the suspects into custody on Winter Street.

According to an entry in the Saugus police log, a third suspect may have fled toward Jasper Street. Saugus units set a perimeter at the request of State Police and an area search was negative.

Kmiec said the third suspect, a male, has not been taken into custody at this time.

Augustin Gomez, 23, of 185 N. Common St., Lynn, was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, armed assault to murder, assault with a dangerous weapon, disturbing the peace, failure to stop/yield, speeding, operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license, reckless operation of a motor vehicle, carrying a loaded firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition, possessing a firearm without an FID card, discharging a firearm, and carrying a firearm without a license.

Lexus Perez, 25, of 45 Adams St., Dorchester, was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, armed assault to murder, possessing a firearm without an FID card, unlawful possession of ammunition without an FID card, disturbing the peace, carrying a firearm without a license, carrying a loaded firearm, discharging a firearm, felony use of a firearm, and distributing a class B drug.

Gomez and Perez will be arraigned on the charges Wednesday, Kmiec said.
