COURTHOUSE,
\n July 23 \u2013 A man depicted
\n shooting a ghost gun 12 times
\n by a housing project in the
\n Bronx at 3 am asked to be
\n released on bail on June
\n 18.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u00a0 In the
\n U.S. District Court for the
\n Southern District of New York
\n Magistrates Court, there was
\n no one but Inner City Press in
\n the gallery, so this X thread:
\n Judge: I’ve seen the video and
\n it does not appear anyone shot
\n at him. <\/p>\n

\u00a0AUSA:
\n According to the Carolina
\n records, there have been 12
\n bench warrants issued against
\n him. Defense lawyer: You can
\n see the dirt kick up beside
\n him.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

AUSA: Exhibit A
\n would have you the best view.
\n <\/p>\n

Judge: Just give
\n me a minute… I saw a
\n gentleman wearing white
\n approach the defendant. It
\n looks like the defendant pulls
\n out his gun first. I do see
\n some dirt jumping up. But
\n regardless this looks to me
\n like a very dangerous
\n incident.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Judge: I don’t
\n think he’s a risk of flight,
\n but it strikes me that he is a
\n very volatile personality who
\n bought a ghost gun. There was
\n a window, there was a case
\n like this in another state
\n that a lot of people are
\n paying attention to. He poses
\n a risk.\u00a0 Judge: He will
\n be detained. <\/p>\n

On June 30, Inner
\n City Press was in the SDNY
\n Magistrates Court when it was
\n read out: indictment in US v
\n Chance assigned to Judge
\n Oetken. He has been indicted.<\/p>\n

On July 23 when
\n he tried again to be released
\n on bail, it was dened by Judge
\n J. Paul Oetken.<\/p>\n

The case is now
\n USA v. Chance, 1:26-cr-284
\n (Oetken) <\/p>\n
