Non-Fatal Shooting
|
On Feb. 5, DC Superior Court Judge Errol Arthur presided during a mental observation hearing in the case against Jonathan Jones.
Johnathan Jones, 37, is charged with one count of carrying a pistol without a license, one count of unlawful discharge of a firearm, one count of possession of an unregistered firearm, and one count of possession of unregistered ammunition, for his alleged involvement in a non-fatal shooting incident on Feb. 8, 2023, on the 800 block of H Street, NW. No injuries were reported.
After a brief discussion between the parties, Judge Arthur ordered a 60-day period of inpatient competency restoration based on a report, which found Jones in need of further treatment before standing trial.
The next hearing is scheduled for April 12.
