An actor from the “Hunger Games” movies was arrested last week on assault charges in Raleigh after a shot was fired from an electric bicycle at a moving vehicle.<\/p>\n
Ethan Brody Jamieson, 27, who played a tribute in the “Hunger Games” series, is charged with three counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, according to Raleigh police.<\/p>\n
Police said\u00a0Jamieson was identified as a suspect following a March 22 incident in which a person on an e-bicycle shot at a truck on\u00a0Wakefield Plantation Drive in Raleigh. Three people were in the truck at the time, including a 14-year-old boy.<\/p>\n
“He turns the corner real quick and starts coming straight towards me. I honked my horn a little bit like, ‘what’s going on?’ and he turns around and starts following me,” said Elijah Fernandez, who had been driving the truck.<\/p>\n
Fernandez said he then saw the suspect throw the bicycle into the road.<\/p>\n
“So I’m like, ‘Oh, so he’s trying to block the road off; he’s going to throw something at my truck,'” he said. “That’s when I see him lifting his arms a little bit.<\/p>\n
“I’m like, ‘Oh, no. He’s about to shoot.’ So, we all get down.”<\/p>\n
Fernandez said everyone ducked inside the truck while he continued to drive.<\/p>\n
“I couldn’t tell you what was going through my mind,” Fernandez said. “All I knew was that I was getting down. I couldn’t see where I was driving.”<\/p>\n
Fernandez said he had the windows down on the truck, too. He said he and some friends had been fishing before driving home in the truck.<\/p>\n
Fernandez said he rewatched the “Hunger Games” movies after he learned of\u00a0Jamieson’s arrest.<\/p>\n
