Two brothers were arrested Monday in connection with the shooting of a man on a playground in Reading.
The gunfire erupted shortly before 10 p.m. Sunday on the playground at North Third and Spring streets.
Officers responding to the call said they arrived to find a man suffering from a gunshot wound to his left thigh.
The victim, whose name has not been released, told police he went to the playground to speak with one of the suspects, Joel Ovalle, about a relationship Ovalle had with the victim's wife.
As the two men scuffled on the playground, Jesse Ovalle pulled out a semiautomatic handgun and shot the victim, according to an affidavit of probable cause.
Both brothers fled the scene, but they were later arrested and charged with multiple offenses, including attempted homicide and aggravated and simple assault.
Jesse Ovalle was committed to the Berks County Jail on $500,000 bail; bail for Joel Ovalle was set at $200,000.
