I agree with Kriste B this guy should not get off so easy you don't just shoot people just becaus you are mad!! And why have they not arrested him!

I think Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon is a really lame charge to give this guy. I know someone who got that same charge for simply getting into a fist fight...so why isn't this more like attempted murder?! I never understand the MPD.
