AUBURN A judge on Friday rejected a claim by a Lewiston man that prosecutors excluded the only African-American from the trial jury because he was the same race as the defendant.
Malik Hollis, 21, who is African-American, was seeking an acquittal or new trial.
Hollis was convicted in July by a jury in Androscoggin County Superior Court on charges of reckless conduct with a firearm and criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon. He was sentenced to three years in prison.
Police said Hollis fired gunshots in the direction of several men in late morning on May 21, 2016.

More than 250 people of various Christian faiths rolled through the parking lot at the popular “Drive-Thru Ashes” event at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in New Providence last year.
The faithful marked Ash Wednesday by pulling up in their cars and rolling down their windows beside the Rev. Dr. Daniel Gunn, the church’s pastor. He placed ashes on their foreheads in the ancient tradition that marks the start of Lent.
