Booneville man charged in shooting at house

BOONEVILLE, Mississippi (WCBI) – A Booneville man has been charged with several felonies after allegedly attempting to shoot into a building.

On August 23, the Prentiss County Sheriff's Department responded to a 911 call reporting a shots fired at a residence on County Road 7090.

During the report, officers were told that several adults and children were on the back porch of the residence when a shot was fired.

Eventually, affidavits were signed and arrest warrants were issued for the suspect, 45-year-old Jason Hall.

Hall was charged with two serious crimes: shooting at an apartment, shooting at a house, and aggravated assault – a sign of extreme indifference to human life, resisting arrest, and failure to comply with the peace order.

District Court Judge Ray Hall set bail at $153,000.

The case will be presented to the next Prentiss County grand jury.
