A non-fatal shooting case was continued in an April 13 hearing after the prosecution requested more time to indict.

Dominick Jackson, 38, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon and possession of a firearm during a crime of violence in connection to a shooting that occurred on the 700 block of 12th Street, NE on Nov. 20, 2022.

According to court documents, as police were processing the scene on 12th Street, other officers were dispatched to the 800 block of K Street, NE for the report of a vehicle striking a building. When officers arrived they observed several bullet holes through the car’s front passenger window.

The driver was unresponsive and appeared to have suffered a gunshot wound to the right thigh. He was immediately rushed to Washington Hospital Center and taken into surgery. 

The driver is the complainant in this case.

Court documents also indicate, private security footage captured a male voice yelling, “Yo! What’s up with it ? What’s up with it?” and then four gunshots.

It was discovered that the victim’s girlfriend shares children with Jackson.

The next hearing is scheduled for June 27, when the prosecution expects to indict at that time.
