NORFOLK,Virginia -- Alabama State football signee Elston "Ricky" Haley Jr. was in a world of trouble.
Last May, Haley was the driver in a drive-by shooting in which two people were shot. The Norfolk, Virginia native was charged with multiple felonies that included two counts of malicious wounding, two counts of use of a firearm during the commission of a felony, one count of conspiracy and one count of child cruelty.
All that changed today.
Earlier this morning, the prosecutor dropped all the charges against the Maury High graduate, according to The Virginian-Pilot. The people who were shot weren't cooperating with attorney Catherine Dodson's office . Dodson said they weren't in court ready to testify. So she asked for all charges to be dropped.
"I'm just happy it's over with," Haley told The Virginian-Pilot. "That's all I can say. I'm happy and ready to move on with my life."
