Friday night, the Holyoke Police Department confirmed they were looking for two individuals, one who opened fire on a detective after responding to a separate shots fired call.
Saturday night, those two people were under arrest.
The incident happened near the intersection of South Elm and Congress streets around 10:15 p.m. on Friday.
Police told CBS 3 that the suspects are Pedro Arroyo, 22, of Holyoke and a 17-year-old juvenile, who is also a Holyoke resident.
