Alva McKinney
(KNZA)--A Jackson County jury has found a Mayetta man, accused of shooting a family member last August, guilty of all three counts against him.
Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller told MSC News that the jury deliberated for about an hour before returning the verdict late Wednesday morning in the trial of 40-year-old Alva McKinney.
McKinney was convicted of aggravated battery, criminal possession of a firearm and driving while suspended.
Sentencing was set for the morning of March 8.
The trial began Tuesday.
McKinney was arrested August 1 after authorities say he shot a male relative in the head at a residence north of Mayetta.
The 59-year-old victim was transported to a Topeka hospital for treatment of the gunshot bound.
McKinney remains jailed on a $50,000 bond.
