Simons’ record, going back to 1999, includes numerous traffic citations and four drug-related misdemeanors.

Chotia-Thompson was being held Thursday without bail on suspicion of first-degree felony aggravated robbery and one class B misdemeanor count of possession of a controlled substance.

Wednesday’s JCAT shooting of Simons was the first fatal officer-involved shooting of the new year. On Tuesday, Murray police shot and wounded a suicidal man when he pointed a BB pistol replica at them.
