Columbia man arrested after alleged shooting

Boone County Sheriff's Office

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A Columbia man has been arrested after he was charged earlier this month for allegedly shooting at a home.

Marlon Meija-Fuentez was booked into the Boone County Jail at 4:54 p.m. on Wednesday, according to online records.

Meija-Fuentez was charged with first-degree assault, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon on Aug.11.

A second person, Jacquelin Ramirez, was also charged with tampering with evidence in a felony prosecution. Court filings indicate she posted bond.

A probable cause statement says police were called at 7:02 p.m. on Aug. 9 to the 4400 block of Brown Station Road for a report of shots being fired. The victim allegedly told law enforcement that Ramirez’s husband had asked them to point a camera at the residence after allegations of infidelity occurred.

Another witness provided police with video evidence of the shooting, court documents say. In a second probable cause statement, Ramirez allegedly told police she had a camera at the residence, but footage shows the camera being moved to a different view before two shots were heard and a vehicle accelerates, the statement says. The camera view then moved back to where it was before, court documents say.

A court hearing was scheduled for Thursday afternoon.
