Daniel Young, 21, of Stewartville is accused of returning fire at Caradine from the same vehicle as the woman.
Both men face recommended charges of 2nd-degree assault with a dangerous weapon, drive-by shooting, and reckless discharge of a firearm.
Police recovered one gun allegedly involved in the incident, according to Moilanen.
The shootings allegedly happened after a Halloween party devolved into a fight.
“These days, they don’t solve problems with a fist fight or whatever — they shoot at each other,” Moilanen said.
Moilanen said the 20-year-old woman shot in the incident is expected to survive, though it is unclear whether or not her sight will be affected by her injury.
According to police, the shootings in The Quarters parking lot Friday night began after an individual fired a shot inside the apartments.
