He was arrested for allegedly assaulting a victim on May 13 on the 100 block of Q Street, NW. While he was being detained, Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers searched his car and found a firearm.
Stewart was known to have previous altercations with the victim.
Judge Ronna Beck scheduled the preliminary hearing for Aug. 12.
