Joshua Joseph Myers

(KNZA)--An Ozawkie man accused of opening fire with a handgun while driving in Holton last October will stand trial.

Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller says 23-year-old Joshua Myers waived his preliminary hearing Tuesday afternoon and was bound over to Jackson County District Court on a charge of attempted second-degree murder. 

Arraignment was scheduled for February 12th.

Miller says no plea agreements have been reached at this time.

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 evening of October 23rd. The alleged intended victim wasn't hurt.

Myers was arrested about 10 minutes later in Denison by the Jackson County Sheriff's Department after fleeing the scene.

He remains free on bond with certain conditions.
