26-May-18 – A man who opened fire from a condominium balcony at Marina City early Thursday is in custody, charged with multiple felonies and weapons violations, according to Chicago police. No one was injured in the incident.

Joshua Yang (left), age 32, was arrested on the 37th floor of Marina City’s west tower at around 3:30 a.m. Sporadic reports of shots fired were made by police and citizens in the Loop and River North over about ten minutes before officers found a witness who pinpointed the balcony where the gunfire was originating.

Police relocated to the suspected apartment and found Yang, holding a gun, and a second man. Yang was ordered to drop the weapon and lay on the floor. He complied, and officers took him and the second man into custody.

Yang was being held without bail, according to Cook County Sheriff’s Office records.
