Roy Melead was indicted Thursday on charges tied to an alleged September shooting in Louisville.
Attorney General Russell Coleman said in a news release that Melead was indicted, FOX 56 News reported. The indictment includes two counts of first-degree wanton endangerment, possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, one count of first-degree criminal mischief, and one count of first-degree being a persistent felony offender.
It alleges he fired a gun at a home in September, endangered two people, and damaged the victims' property. WDRB reported in September that police accused him of firing toward an ex-partner's vehicle during an argument on Sept. 15. Investigators said the bullet passed through a window of a neighbor's home across the street, lodged in a wall, and caused more than $500 in damage.
Officers arrested Melead at his home on Algonquin Parkway, WDRB reported, and a judge set bond at $100,000 cash at arraignment.
FOX 56 reported that Melead has five prior felony convictions, including burglary and theft, and that he was lodged at the Louisville Metro Department of Corrections.
