NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - A former New Jersey corrections officer has admitted his role in a shooting that left a 17-year-old wounded.
Aaron Milliner pleaded guilty to aggravated assault.
Prosecutors say Milliner was off-duty when his roommate told him someone had fired a gun outside their home on Leslie Street in Newark in 2015. Authorities say Milliner walked down the street and opened fire in the direction of the person whom he believed had fired the weapon. Other people were in the street and a girl was shot in the back.
