(KNZA)--Formal charges have been filed against an Ozawkie man accused of opening fire with a handgun while driving in Holton Friday evening.

Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller says 23-year-old Joshua Joseph Myers has been charged in Jackson County District Court with attempted second-degree murder. Miller says Myers is scheduled to make his next appearance in court for a status hearing in November.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says Myers is accused of shooting a 9 millimeter handgun from his vehicle at another man who was standing across the street from him at the intersection of 5th and Arizona. The alleged intended victim wasn’t hurt.

Myers was arrested about 10 minutes later in Denison after allegedly fleeing the scene.
Originally jailed on a bond of $300,000, Myers bonded out Monday on an OR bond of $250,000 and a surety bond of $50,000.
