A man accused of firing a handgun inside a residence during an argument remains in jail without bail, after waiving his preliminary hearing on Friday.

Christopher Sands is charged with a class-d felony of unlawful possession of a firearm. Police said in court documents that Sands “…possessed a .22 caliber handgun on his person in his waistband,” and that he “…shot the .22 caliber handgun off inside of the residence.”

As we reported, a judge denied bail in the case June 20. On Friday, Sands waived his preliminary hearing. Associate Judge Keith Marquart certified the case for circuit court.

Sands remains in custody awaiting Circuit Court arraignment July 31 at 3 pm before Judge Daniel Kellogg.
