HOUSTON -- Former U.S. Congressman Craig Washington was indicted Wednesday on charges of second-degree aggravated assault.

The charges stem from an incident that happened outside of his business in the 2300 block of Caroline on New Year's. He's accused of shooting at a car.

Two teenagers are believe to have been in the car when he allegedly shot at it.

On the same night, Washington called police and complained about people trespassing on his property.

He has not yet turned himself in. An associate at his office Thursday said he is a kind, honorable man.
