A man involved in a shooting on Wax Road in April entered a guilty plea Thursday morning.
 
Eighteen year old Avon Trey Grissom, was charged with aggravated assault April 17th, and pleaded guilty in front of Judge Tami Colston.

Grissom was sentenced to 10 years with 24 to 30 months served at the Floyd County Prison Work Release Center. By operation of law, he receives credit for the six months because he was in jail, according to District Attorney Leigh Patterson. 

He was also given first offender status meaning his record will be erased if he completes his sentence, and is not allowed any contact with the victim, Charles Williams.

Grissom has a possibility of a 40 year sentence should he violate probation.   

According to prior reports Grissom was arrested and charged after he fired several shots at Williams with one of those rounds striking him in the leg.

The injury was not life threatening.

Grissom will have a restitution hearing in late November.
