A grand jury is set to hear charges against a man believed to be involved in a string of shootings along Interstate 64.

Slade Allen Woodson of Afton waived his preliminary hearing for the 15 felony counts against him during an appearance in Albemarle County General District Court on Thursday.

The charges against 19-year-old Woodson were certified to a grand jury scheduled to meet June 2. Woodson also faces charges in Waynesboro.

Police believe Woodson was involved in the March 27 shootings at five cars along the interstate and at other vehicles and buildings. Two people were injured.

Sixteen-year-old Brandon Dawson of Crozet pleaded guilty to five of the 15 counts against him related to the shootings in an Albemarle court. He also faces charges in Waynesboro.
