SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 5 – Christopher Scott was
presented in Federal court for
an August 6 shooting in The
Bronx, and detained. Inner
City Press was there.
Scott was
brought before U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Valerie
Figueredo, and appointed a CJA
lawyer.
The
prosecutors say that "on
August 6, 2023, shortly before
10:30 p.m., SCOTT fired a
gunshot at an individual near
Williamsbridge Road in the
Bronx. Surveillance video
captured SCOTT approaching
Victim-1, brandishing a
firearm, and firing a shot at
Victim-1, then following
Victim-1 inside a nearby
building. Within minutes
after SCOTT fired the shot at
Victim-1, and shortly after
SCOTT appears to have hidden
the firearm used in the
shooting under the wheel of a
nearby vehicle."
Scott
consented to detention -
without prejudice to making a
bail application later - and
asked for a preliminary
hearing in 14 days.
The case is
US v. Scott, 23-mj-6210
(Figueredo)
