Shaver case still open
The passing of April 1 means that it’s been a year since Billy Joe Shaver shot a fellow bar patron in the face in Lorena, just south of Waco. Shaver was charged with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm in a prohibited place, but the McLennan County grand jury still haven’t decided whether or not to press the charges in court.
“It’s still open and active,” the clerk of the district attorney’s office said Wednesday.
Shaver is currently on tour in the UK. His next Austin show is May 9 at the Cactus.
