A 19-year-old man suspected of shooting at the Oxford Middle School building while it was unoccupied over Thanksgiving break was arraigned on two unrelated charges last week.
Alexander Remy Boggess was arraigned Dec. 9 in Rochester Hills 52-3 District Court on one count of carrying a concealed weapon (a five-year felony) and possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor. Boggess remains jailed in lieu of $5,000 cash or surety bond.
On Dec. 7, Oakland County Sheriff’s investigators stopped Boggess in the Lake Villa Manufactured Home Community for a traffic offense. According to investigators, a loaded .380 caliber semiautomatic Hi-Point handgun was found locked in the glove compartment of his 2003 Chevy Impala. Investigators said he does not have a concealed pistol license and the gun is not registered to him.
The gun is the exact type of weapon investigators had been looking for in connection with the OMS shooting. It’s being processed by the sheriff’s crime lab to determine if it was the gun used.
