Assault with a Dangerous Weapon
Malicious Destruction of Property
Several youths, including the client, were stopped after the client was reported to be with several other youths brandishing an otherwise real-looking handgun and jumping on a civilian's motor vehicle and demanding that the occupants "open the door" and "give them the money". The group of youths was stopped and an out-of-court identification was completed and the witnesses identified two people having one handgun. One witness identified the client and two other witnesses identified another individual. After consultation with the District Attorney, the case was dismissed.
