Another Waterloo Gunfire Case
The Calhoun Street case lands amid a string of recent gunfire incidents across Waterloo. Police were separately investigating two reports of gunfire that occurred on a Monday, the Courier noted in a related report, underscoring how frequently officers have been responding to shots-fired calls in the city.
In another case on Aug. 25, 2026, Waterloo police arrested two people after gunfire rang out near West Second Street and Western Avenue, according to KWWL. That report stated witnesses saw someone firing a weapon before running away, and police said no one was hurt and no property was damaged in that shooting. A 17-year-old Waterloo male faced charges of intimidation with a dangerous weapon, going armed with intent and minor in possession of a firearm in connection with that incident, while 20-year-old Jonathan Elliot Jr. of Waterloo was charged with interference with official acts with a firearm, the station reported.
No additional details on court dates, bond, or a case disposition for Forte were included in the available reporting.
