DC Superior Court Judge Lynn Leibovitz ordered a shooting defendant receive additional examination of his mental competence based on a report from the Department of Behavioral Health (DBH), on July 16.
Kevin Harrison, 23, is charged with unlawful discharge of a firearm and carrying a pistol without a license outside a home or place of business for his alleged involvement in a shooting incident on June 26, 2023, on the 2200 block of 10th Street, NW. No injuries were reported.
According to court documents, Harrison is charged alongside Christopher Hinton, 18, was found in possession of a firearm when Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers patted them down after the incident.
Both defendants were arrested on scene, but later released.
During the hearing, parties agreed Harrison needs additional evaluation, citing a report from DBH that stated they were unable to determine his competency. Judge Leibovitz told Harrison he would need to continue online classes supporting his mental health.
Parties are set to reconvene on Aug. 16.
