A trial date has been set for a retired Front Royal police officer charged with shooting at his son.

Fifty-one-year-old James Striker appeared for a bond hearing in Warren County Wednesday afternoon.

Striker faces charges of discharging a firearm within a dwelling as well as misdemeanor charges of brandishing and reckless handling of a firearm.

The charges stem from an incident on Tuesday when investigators say Striker shot at his son from his bedroom window.

Investigators say Striker was trying to get him to stop beating on his mothers car window.

Striker is scheduled for trial on August 21 in the county juvenile and domestics court.
