Man accused of shooting off gun in Jefferson City
A man was taken into custody early Saturday morning after he allegedly fired a gun in the 900 block of Hibernia Road.
Tyler J. Houston, 28, was allegedly looking for someone in the area, and while he was on a commuter lot, witnesses saw him shoot off a gun multiple times, court documents said.
Houston then allegedly drove away from the scene while still shooting off his gun.
Jefferson City Police Department officers were able to find Houston a short time later on North Ventura. Houston admitted to firing the gun and told police he was making sure the gun worked for a friend, court documents said.
Officers then arrested Houston. He’s charged with unlawful use of a weapon.
