Plea deal under consideration for man accused in Dillon bowling alley shooting

The man facing attempted murder charges in connection with a May shooting outside Dillon’s Elevation Bowl could soon reach a plea agreement after waiving his right to a preliminary hearing. Ernesto Camacho appeared virtually in court Tuesday, Nov. 10, where his public defender, Nathan McMullin, said prosecutors had extended a plea offer that would involve dismissing a separate traffic case in exchange for a plea in the criminal case. McMullin asked that the felony case move forward to district court before District Court Judge Reed Owens based on the pending offer. Camacho verbally agreed to waive his right to a preliminary demand hearing, which had been scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. District Court Judge Robert Gregory scheduled Camacho’s next court appearance for Monday, Dec. 7, at 10 a.m. No plea agreement has been finalized.
