Bond set at $3M for man charged with shooting at police

BLOOMINGDALE, Ill. (AP) – Bond has been set at $3 million for a suburban Chicago man charged with shooting at officers who were responding to a call.

Authorities say 42-year-old Raymond Vieyra of Bloomingdale appeared in court Monday on charges of aggravated discharge of a firearm and unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon.

Police say officers were responding to a report of a domestic disturbance at Vieyra’s home early Saturday morning when he exited the garage and started shooting at officers. He then went back inside the home but came back out a short time later with his hands up.

DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin says he’s thankful the shooting didn’t cause serious injury or death.

It was unclear if Vieyra has a defense attorney to comment on his behalf.
