Hopkinsville Police say 27-year-old Demerriel Harris was seen by police jumping up and down by the driver door of a vehicle and playing music very loudly after hearing a shot fired in the area.
A handgun was reportedly in plain view on the driver seat of the vehicle and officers could allegedly smell alcohol coming from Harris.
A shell casing was reportedly located behind Harris’s vehicle on the roadway, and marijuana along with a digital scale were found inside his vehicle.
He is charged with first-degree wanton endangerment, trafficking in marijuana less than 8 ounces, and alcohol intoxication in a public place.
