incident happened August 12 around 6:33 a.m.

Middletown police received a complaint about noise and breaking glass at 195 Liberty Street, officials said.

Police said Tate took a hammer and hit Travis four times.

While on the ground, Travis shot Tate several times. Then he was arrested.

Tate appeared in court on Tuesday.

“He’s dangerous. There’s nobody that’s safe from this man,” said the state’s attorney.

Tate shook his head and closed his eyes as attorneys described the attack.

Tate even tried to take his prison jumpsuit off while the judge decided his bond. A public defender calmed him down.
