LORAIN — A Lorain man with a lengthy record has been charged with felonious assault following a shooting overnight.

Andrew Lorenzana, 21, was arrested overnight. Reginal Johnson, 31, of Lorain was treated and released from Mercy Regional Medical Center in Lorain, according to a hospital spokeswoman.

Johnson called police about 5 p.m. last night to tell them he had been shot and was being driven to the hospital. Officers met Johnson at the emergency room and found him bleeding from the leg and calf. They found three gunshot wounds to his left calf, although it was unclear how many times he had been shot because some of them could be exit wounds, a police report said.

Johnson told officers he had pulled up in front of his brother’s house on West 15th St., and he noticed that Lorenzana pulled up behind him and parked in the street. Johnson said Lorenzana asked to buy marijuana from him, but he denied him because he was still owed money from the last marijuana he sold him.

According to the police report, Lorenzana then got upset and said “It’s like that?” before asking a passenger in his car to hand him a gun.

Johnson said he then ran toward his brother’s house, heard shots and felt pain in his leg.

Lorenzana was arrested overnight and is currently in the Lorain city jail.

Lorenzana has a history of being charged with felonies only to see the cases dropped. Most recently, he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of attempted trafficking in cocaine and had charges of trafficking in cocaine and participating in a criminal gang dropped. That case came from a Lorain police crackdown on gang activity.
