Prosecutors dismissed a case for a defendant accused of shooting at his romantic partner in a hearing before DC Superior Court Judge Carmen McLean on April 17.
Anthony McKoy, 34, was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for his alleged involvement in a parking lot shooting on the 5300 block of E Street, SE, on Jan. 1. No injuries were reported but police recovered seven shell casings.
According to court records, McKoy and the victim had an on-and-off romantic relationship for over nine years.
Judge McLean dismissed the charges against McKoy after prosecutors filed a notice of Nolle Prosequi, indicating they will no longer pursue the case at this time.
McKoy is no longer held in this case and no further dates were set.
