A DC Superior Court judge pushed back an Aug. 26 hearing, so that an assault and trespassing defendant could enter a plea.

Ahyende Gray is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon and unlawful trespassing in three cases.

The first trespassing violation was on Feb. 24 at the Union Station Post Office located at 50 Massachusetts Avenue, NE. Gray allegedly refused to display a valid traveling ticket and declined to leave his seat.

The second trespassing violation occurred on Feb. 26 on the 500 block of Galloway Street, NE. Gray was allegedly sitting on a wall of a bridge that had metro train tracks. After being asked to come down, he jumped through a hole in the fence where he was grabbed and arrested, according to court documents.

Gray allegedly assaulted a victim with a stick on June 14 at the intersection of 16th Street and H Street, NW. The stick cut the victim’s eye.

Judge Julie Becker scheduled Gray’s next status hearing for Sept. 21.
