The charges stemmed from a gunfight involving police more than a year ago on Sept. 21, 2021.
Dollar General employees at the store at 888 S. Gettysburg Ave. reported a customer used a counterfeit bill earlier that day.
Officer Thadeu Holloway was investigating the report, which led him to the 600 block of Ingram Street, where around 7:25 p.m. he approached Lowe, who matched the suspect’s description in the fraud complaint.
Body camera footage showed Holloway tell Lowe to stop. When the officer got closer, Lowe punched Holloway.
The officer then used his Taser on Lowe. Holloway was heard telling Lowe to put his hands behind his back on the body camera footage. Lowe is then shown grabbing a gun and firing at Holloway, who returned fire. Holloway fired five rounds, striking Lowe multiple times, according to police.
Holloway was shot on the left side of his head. His left temporal artery was reportedly torn as a result.
Lowe initially was in critical condition following the shooting. Holloway was released from the hospital after two days.
