A second Kansas City man has been charged for attempting to shoot at a law enforcement officer in Kansas City earlier in March, Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker announced today.

According to court records, KC Police Department officers were in the 2500 block of Chelsea Avenue in Kansas City when a vehicle fled from police. During the pursuit a passenger leaned out the window and fired multiple shots at the police vehicle following the suspect vehicle. Gunfire struck the vehicle on the driver's side front bumper. A witness identified a shooter. That suspect identified Brown as one of the shooters. Brow was taken into custody and identified the other suspect as the one shooting at a residence on Chelsea. He stated he has three weapons in his possession at the time of the shooting. 

Prosecutors requested a bond of $150,000 cash.
