Parole absconder from Chicago charged in Holland drive-by shooting


OTTAWA COUNTY, MI-- A 22-year-old Chicago man arrested Wednesday on a warrant from Illinois now faces charges in West Michigan after police say he was involved in a drive-by shooting in Holland last month.
Ladale Antonio Brassel was taken into custody Wednesday for being a parole absconder and was found to be in possession of marijuana.
Further investigation showed Brassel was involved with a March 20 drive-by shooting in the 100 block of East 21st Street.
Police responded at about 9:25 p.m. that day after witnesses said at least 7 rounds were fired from a gray minivan into a group of people standing in front of a residence. No one was struck or injured.
Brassel faces charges in Ottawa County of being a felon in possession of a firearm and discharging a firearm from a vehicle.
Police say an argument that occurred the night before the shooting was likely a motivating factor, but specifics of the disagreement are not clear because of a lack of cooperation from those present.
Brassel remains lodged in the Ottawa County jail on a $102,000 cash bond.
