On June 15, prosecutors moved to dismiss Tavon Shaw’s non-fatal shooting case due to a plea agreement in another incident.
Shaw, 25, was charged with one count of carrying a pistol without a license for his alleged involvement in a non-fatal shooting that occurred on March 23 on the 1400 block of Smith Place, SE.
According to court documents, Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers responded to the incident and surveillance footage shows four suspects, including the defendant, shooting at a moving vehicle. No one was apparently injured except the defendant who was wounded six times.
In the felony status conference before DC Superior Court Judge Andrea Hertzfeld referring to the separate case, Shaw entered a guilty plea to carrying a pistol without a license and will be required to register as a gun offender on release.
Due to the nature of the plea deal, all charges coinciding with the events of March 23 were dismissed.
