(KMIZ)A 20-year-old man was charged Sunday with two misdemeanors and two felonies for allegedly firing shots in downtown Columbia. Wells alleges Williams-Patrick was armed with a handgun and fired four rounds near about 30 people on a public sidewalk near an open business. Wells recommended that Williams-Patrick be denied bond because he has previously been arrested for several violent felonies, many of which involved firearms. He said he believes some people are already avoiding certain parts of downtown because of concerns about encountering trouble or crime. Despite his concerns, Meyers said he wants people to continue coming downtown and enjoying the area, especially as Mizzou football season approaches.
