Suspect Wounded at Quantico is Charged

Washington Post

A Fredericksburg man shot by military police Sunday at Quantico Marine Corps Base has been charged in federal court with assault with a deadly weapon. Eric Robert Greene, 22, was shot in the right arm as he tried to evade Quantico guards, according to court records filed yesterday.

A criminal complaint alleges that Greene was asked for identification at a base checkpoint about 5:10 p.m. A military police officer then saw what he thought was a handgun in Greene’s waistband. Greene allegedly ignored an order to stop and sped through the checkpoint, nearly striking two other military police officers. One of the officers fired a shot at Greene as he sped away.
