A 37-year-old Coeur d’Alene man who is believed to have been involved in a fatal shooting in Midtown Thursday evening, and who led police on a high-speed chase prior to his arrest, will have his first court appearance today.
Daniel V. Stinson is being held in the Kootenai County jail before facing a First District magistrate judge on charges of robbery, aggravated battery and burglary.
According to reports, Stinson stole a black Ford Explorer from a Coeur d’Alene man at gunpoint, was involved in the shooting that killed a man at Midtown, and then led Idaho State Police on a high speed chase that ended near Gozzer Road on Highway 97.
