Suspect who attempted to shoot Louisville’s mayoral candidate now faces federal charges

Published

Quintez Brown, the suspect who barged into the offices of Craig Greenberg, a candidate for mayor of Louisville, and opened fire on February 14, is facing federal charges that carry a maximum sentence of life in prison.

The 21 year old has been accused of interfering with constitutional rights and discharging a firearm in an effort to kill a candidate running for office.

Greenberg’s attorneys say Brown carried out the act to intimidate Greenberg out of running for mayor. Greenberg was not injured in the shooting, but a bullet grazed the sweater he was wearing.

Brown was indicted by a Jefferson County grand jury on March 28 on one count of attempted murder and four counts of first degree wanton endangerment because four of Green’s associates were nearby when the shooting occurred.

Brown, who is also a candidate for city council, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
