(KNZA)--A Topeka man charged in a Jackson County road rage case dating back to 2014 has entered into a plea agreement.
Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller says 52-year-old Cory Huff pleaded “ no contest” this week in Jackson County District Court to two counts of criminal discharge of a firearm at an occupied vehicle. In exchange for the plea, four counts of attempted second-degree murder and one count of reckless driving were dismissed.
Sentencing was set for July 15th.
Huff had been scheduled for a 4-day jury trial beginning next Tuesday.
He was arrested the evening of December 31st, 2014 after motorists along U.S. 75 Highway in southern Jackson County reported a man firing a pistol. No injuries were reported in the incident, which Miller called a random act of road rage.
