Posted

FORT MYERS, Fla. -- The man accused of shooting a Sanibel police officer will be back in a Lee County courtroom Tuesday.

Jon Hay was arraigned Monday. He is facing four counts of attempted first-degree murder on a law enforcement officer.

The state has filed a motion requiring Hay to provide a DNA sample Tuesday.

Investigators say on November 20th, Hay shot officer Jarred Ciccone in the shoulder while he was conducting a traffic stop on Perriwinkle Way.  Shortly after, investigators say Hay started a shootout with police outside his parents home.

Officer Ciccone has since recovered.
