Here's more in a police report:Â
Attempted Aggravated Malicious Wounding – On October 3rd at 2:18PM, officers responded to a residence located in the 9800 block of Dochart Sound Ln in Bristow (20136) to investigate a shooting call. The investigation revealed that the accused shot into a residence in the above area as a result of a previous encounter earlier in the evening involving a 16 year old male juvenile, who resides at the home, and another male acquaintance. The two reportedly went to an area church parking lot to purchase marijuana from the accused and other known acquaintances. During the transaction, the 16 year old allegedly paid for the marijuana with counterfeit money. In retaliation, the accused and three other suspects went to the 16 year old’s residence on Dochart Sound Ln to confront him over the money. At one point, the accused fired into the home, striking an interior wall. No injuries were reported. Following the investigation, the accused was arrested. Additional charges are forthcoming.
