Hartington Man Facing Four Felonies Following Alleged Shooting Incident

A Hartington man is facing four felony charges following a June shooting incident in Hartington.

27-year-old Brandon L. Meyers faces two counts of terroristic threats and two counts of committing child abuse intentional with no injury. He waived a preliminary hearing last week in Cedar County Court.

According to court documents, the charges stem from an incident in which Meyers allegedly pointed an Airsoft BB gun at two people who rode past his home and shot out the window of the vehicle. The victims indicated they mistook the gun for a real firearm.

Arraignment is set in the case for Monday Oct. 25th at which time he will be arraigned on the charges. If convicted, Meyers faces a maximum penalty of three years in prison.
