A defendant pleaded guilty to aggravated assault while armed before DC Superior Court Judge Jason Park on June 26.
Darius McIntyre, 41, was originally charged with assault with intent to kill while armed and possession of firearm during a crime of violence for his involvement in a non-fatal shooting on April 14 on the 2600 block of Stanton Road, SE.
According to court documents, McIntyre shot the victim multiple times after an argument. The victim was found laying face down on the concrete with multiple gunshot wounds when officers arrived at the scene.
The prosecution agreed to dismiss all other charges in the case in return for McIntyre’s guilty plea.
McIntyre faces up to three years of jail time and must register as a gun offender in DC for two years after his release.
Parties will reconvene for sentencing on Sept. 5.
