Next up, a man charged with shooting a Chattanooga police officer multiple times in the thigh and groin is also a suspect in another shooting earlier this month. 39-year-old Celvin Houston faces charges of attempted first-degree murder, aggravated assault and unlawfully carrying a gun after he reportedly shot 26-year-old officer William McMillan Tuesday. Houston left his cellphone at the scene, which helped identify him quickly. He was found just after 8:30 Wednesday morning at a home in Brainerd. Houston was already wanted after a robbery and shooting Friday at the Hamilton Inn and court records show he was charged with aggravated assault on a police officer in 2006. Houston is now in jail on a one point twenty five million dollar bond.
