Docket entry

180052 Jones v. Commonwealth 12/06/2018 A conviction for the crime of for shooting at an occupied vehicle under Code § 18.2-154 is affirmed. The argument that to secure a conviction under this statute the prosecution must prove that the shooter was positioned outside of the occupied vehicle is rejected. The plain language of the statute does not require the prosecution to prove that the shooter was located outside of the vehicle when he fired shots at an occupied vehicle. The judgment of the Court of Appeals upholding the defendant's conviction is affirmed.
