During his court appearance, he was denied bond and will be held in Harris County Jail until his next court appearance.

On Wednesday, federal charges were filed for Green. He is now charged with assault of a federal officer, violating the protection of officers and U.S. employees, and possession of a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.

What happened?

On Aug. 15, Harris County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Joseph Anderson conducted a traffic stop on Green on Homestead Road. That was when Green allegedly opened fire on Anderson, critically wounding him.

This led to the search of Green.

Green was taken into custody Thursday following a standoff that included gunfire. Three officers were wounded during the shootout before Green’s arrest.

Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said two Harris County deputies and one deputy U.S. marshal were wounded when they first approached a northeast Harris County home where Green was barricaded.
