Carbondale police have arrested a city man wanted for shooting someone more than a year ago.

In February 2016, police issued a warrant for James Algee Moore, 32, of Carbondale, on aggravated battery with a firearm after a shooting that left one victim with a non-life threatening gunshot wound to his hand.

The warrant was issued after authorities responded to the 600 block of North Carico Street for a report of shots fired on the evening of Feb. 20, 2016.

Moore was still housed in Jackson County Jail on Friday. His bond is set at $50,000.
