UPDATE: APRIL 1 AT 2 P.M.
Court documents outline the series of events that led to the identification and apprehension of three suspects potentially involved in the shooting of an unoccupied vehicle earlier this week.Â
Shay Austin Dontmix is charged with one count of felony criminal endangerment and one misdemeanor count from fleeing or eluding a peace officer.
Court documents state that on March 30 Yellowstone County Sheriff's Office (YCSO) Deputy Sennett grew suspicious of a white pickup at the Motel 6 in Billings. He said the driver of the pickup blocked the parking lot, then drove through it in a roundabout manner. The driver, later identified as Dontmix, was reported to pick up a black backpack from the parking lot and put something in it. A passenger of the pickup was also identified as Keyonna Hogan. Deputy Sennett said he observed that Dontmix would not exit the parking lot in his pickup until Deputy Sennett left.Â
