Suspect’s Charges Reduced in Paris Park Shooting

PARIS, Tenn.- Charges are reduced Wednesday against one of the men charged in a shooting at a Paris park, last month. According to the Henry County court clerk’s office the charge of attempted first degree murder against Markia Patton was reduced to aggravated assault. His bond was also lowered to $50,000. The shooting happened April 13 at Ogburn Park where three people were hurt. The judge ruled there is enough evidence against Patton to send the case to the grand jury, which meets again in July.
