Former NBA Seattle SuperSonics star Shawn Kemp was charged with first-degree assault after being arrested in connection with a drive-by shooting in Washington state last month, according to court documents.
An altercation broke out in the parking lot of the Tacoma Mall on March 8 that escalated into shots being fired, the Tacoma Police Department said after the incident. "One car fled," it stated, and one man was arrested at the scene.
In an interview with police, Kemp said he was shot at first when he confronted someone after tracking his stolen cell phone. No one was hurt in the incident.
