On March 18, a 29-year-old Boonville man pleaded guilty to multiple felony charges for shooting at another vehicle on I-70 in Montgomery County more than a year ago.

A probable-cause statement says on April 7, 2020, Missouri State Highway Patrol troopers responded to the report of shots fired from inside a moving vehicle that struck and disabled a van, which had three persons inside. A truck driver also gave an eyewitness account of the incident. Nobody was injured inside the van.

Chad Michael Kennedy pleaded guilty to six counts of a Class B Felony for Unlawful Use of a Weapon; three counts of a Class B Felony for Assault or Attempt in the First Degree; and an Unclassified Felony for Armed Criminal Action.

Kennedy is scheduled to be sentenced at 1:30 p.m., Thursday, June 17, at Montgomery County Circuit Court.
