A man charged with attempted murder had his trial pushed back last week.

Emiliano Garcia Varrios’ wife had received a call in December from the Elkhart County Jail, telling her that William Pritt IV was being released from jail. Pritt had been arrested a few days prior on a battery charge against the woman.

According to the Goshen News, Pritt was in a relationship with Garcia Varrios’ 14-year-old daughter, though he and his wife did not approve.

Shortly after Pritt was released from jail, deputies responded to a call of a shooting in Middlebury where Pritt and his father had been shot.

Pritt told police that when he got home from jail, Garcia Varrios and another man approached him and that Garcia Varrios started shooting at him.

Garcia Varrios was charged with attempted murder and criminal recklessness. His jury trial is rescheduled for March 3.
