An April 17 bond review hearing was vacated for a defendant charged with assault.
Brian Clinton, 41, is charged with simple assault, threats to do bodily harm, and destruction of property for his alleged assault of Richard Llamas in the 1300 block of New York Ave, NE, on Dec. 19, 2019.
According to court documents, officers responded at approximately 6:45 a.m. on Dec. 19 to a local homeless shelter bathroom. As officers entered, they saw Clinton repeatedly striking Llamas in the chest with his right hand. Officers then separated both parties, and handcuffed Clinton.
An ambulance was dispatched, however Llamas had no injuries and no medical attention was necessary.
DC Superior Court Judge Michael Ryan scheduled a mental observation hearing for Clinton on July 6.
