He faces charges of  attempted murder, two counts of discharging a weapon into occupied property, four counts of injury to property and a count of going armed to the terror of the people.

The call came in around 7 a.m. of a trespasser at Enfield Pointe Apartments and while officers were arriving a call was received that shots were being fired. Two apartments and several vehicles were struck.

Officers learned Gary came to the apartment of the victim and when the victim would not answer the door he began damaging vehicles in the parking lot, Hasty said. He then began shooting into the apartment and continued to shoot as he ran back towards his vehicle, striking another apartment. 

Gary then fled in a burgundy SUV. No one was injured during the shooting.

Hasty said the crime was not a random shooting. 

Gary is encouraged to surrender to take care of these matters, Hasty said.
