LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A 59-year-old Louisville man was arrested and charged with assault in connection to a shooting earlier this year in the Jacobs neighborhood.
Louisville Metro Police said Clarence McCutchen was arrested Monday and charged with first-degree assault and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon. He had prior convictions and active fugitive warrants in Virginia, police said.
The shooting happened around 8:30 p.m. Oct. 18 in the 3600 block of Manslick Road, LMPD said. Officers arrived on scene to find the victim conscious and alert. He was taken to UofL Health and was expected to survive.
According to McCutchen's arrest citation, he and the victim got into a fight over money. McCutchen forced his way into the victim's apartment, police said and said "You gonna pay me my money back" as he pulled out a gun. The victim turned to run into the kitchen, at which point McCutchen shot him twice in the back, police said.
McCutchen pleaded not guilty in court Tuesday morning, and a judge set his bond at $100,000.
