RAWLINS (WNE) — A Colorado man has pleaded not guilty to assault and battery after allegedly firing a gun at another man inside a Rawlins motel.

Craig, Colorado, resident Ernesto Garcia-Luna — also known as Giovanni Marquez and Giovanni Galan-Marquez — faces charges that include one count of felony aggravated assault and battery. It alleges he threatened to use a drawn deadly weapon on another, which comes with a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and/or a fine up to $10,000.

Garcia-Luna’s trial will be set within the next six months.

According to the arrest affidavit:

On Oct. 20, Rawlins Police Officer Matthew Harnisch was dispatched to the Quality Inn in response to a report of a man shooting at another man inside the hotel.

Miguel Ramirez, the reporting party, told the officer that he was confronted by a Hispanic male in the hotel’s hallway. He said the male had a gun with a laser on it in his face. He turned around and ran out of the back of the hotel, when he heard the man fire a round toward him.

Harnisch later phoned Garcia-Luna’s room and told him to come out with his hands up, which the suspect did.

Garcia-Luna told police he drew the gun on Ramirez because the man was “messing” with him and thought Ramirez was going to do something.
