He was placed in jail with a $25,000 bond. His next court date is scheduled for June 17.

The incident happened at 7:20 p.m. on May 29 at a car wash in Alpena Township, according to police.

Police said Worth fired several shots from a pneumatic gun toward the car wash while standing on a nearby apartment's second-floor balcony.

There were no injuries, but police said the back window of a vehicle was damaged in the shooting.

Police used live drone footage to see where the shots were coming from. They ultimately identified Worth and arrested him at the apartment complex without incident. Investigators also seized evidence relating to the shooting, according to police.
