CHICAGO (WGN) — A Chicago man accused of firing shots at pedestrians while hiding under a sidewalk grate in the Loop is set to make a court appearance on Wednesday.

Chicago police say 34-year-old Rayvon Savary, an Auburn Gresham resident, has been charged with one felony count of aggravated discharge of a firearm and one felony count of aggravated unlawful possession of a loaded weapon.

The charges were handed down following a shooting that allegedly unfolded around 8 a.m. at the Monroe CTA Red Line station on Monday morning.

Authorities arrived on the scene about an hour after the incident and took Savary into custody.

In addition to the felony charges, Savary was also cited for three CTA misconduct violations.

Savary will appear in court on Wednesday for a detention hearing.
