— A Detroit man’s hearing for allegedly firing gunshots twice in a Sharon neighborhood was continued Thursday and one of his relatives is being cited for causing a disturbance in the courtroom.
Isaac Bohand “Zeke” Anderson, 21, was arrested at 12:22 p.m. Nov. 6 in the 200 block of Mesabi Street after someone called police and reported gunfire.
Anderson is also accused of shooting at a Sharon man at 2:45 p.m. Sept. 1 in the same area. No one was hurt in either incident.
Before a preliminary hearing for Anderson began Thursday morning in Sharon’s district court, his aunt was removed from the courtroom after she swore at a witness, police said.
Dreamy Anderson of Detroit is being cited for disorderly conduct, police said. She and about 8 other people traveled to Sharon from Detroit on Isaac Anderson’s behalf, police said.
Anderson’s hearing was continued to Nov. 20 because he didn’t have a lawyer.
Police last week said they did not know if Anderson had ties to the Sharon neighborhood where the shootings took place. Police also said Anderson may travel from Michigan on gang- and drug-related business.
Anderson is charged with eight counts of aggravated assault and four counts each of making terroristic threats and recklessly endangering another person in the September shooting.
In the Nov. 6 incident, he faces charges of having an unlicensed gun, having a prohibited offensive weapon and disorderly conduct.
Anderson was returned to Mercer County Jail after failing to post $50,000 bond.
