The Trenton man accused of wounding a Trenton police officer in June appeared in the Associate Division of Daviess County Circuit Court Tuesday.
The Daviess County Circuit Clerk’s Office reports 39-year-old Jamey Aaron Griffin’s case was continued to August 20th for the setting of a preliminary hearing.
Griffin has been charged with the felonies of assault first degree or attempt—serious physical injury or special victim unlawful use of a weapon—shoot at or from a motor vehicle, at a person, motor vehicle, or building—death or injury; and armed criminal action.
A probable cause statement said Griffin was able to gain control of a police officer’s firearm during transport and discharge the weapon, striking the officer.
The officer was later identified as Jasmine Diab.
