A 22-year-old man faces charges that he allegedly shot at police officers, medics, and two other victims with a BB gun from the second floor of an abandoned Gary house over a five-month period, according to court records.
Jharqwan Toliver, 22, of Gary, faces more than a dozen felonies, mostly battery and criminal confinement.His three cases have a $5,000 cash bond each, or $15,000 total to be released. He made a brief court appearance Dec. 22 where his defense lawyer Roseann Ivanovich entered a not guilty plea.
During the last incident on Dec. 11, a man told police he was setting an alarm next door at Triumph the Church, 834 W. 25th Avenue, that afternoon when he noticed the rear window on his 2023 Lexus had been blown out, charges state. As they arrived, at 3:14 p.m., one officer realized he heard “muffled” gunshots and believed their police car was also being shot at with BBs. One officer remembered Toliver had been arrested for shooting BBs from the house months earlier, where an AR-style BB gun had been found.
They also found several air cartridges and BB copper pellets, charges allege. Police also found Tolliver’s green backpack hanging from the house that contained other BB supplies. An officer spotted Toliver walking from the abandoned house with a baseball bat.Earlier, medics reported around 9 p.m. Sept. 1 their ambulance had been shot up and dented with BBs while they were driving to a service call.
