A man from Brooklyn, NY, has pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, possession of a handgun for an unlawful purpose, and resisting arrest charges stemming from a shooting in Atlantic City this past summer.

31-year-old Neil Henry admitted in court that on August 28th in Atlantic City, he shot a man and then fled on foot from officers who attempted to apprehend him two days later.

The victim's injuries were non-life threatening.

Authorities say at the time of his arrest, Henry had a .40 caliber handgun in his possession which ballistics analysis confirmed he used during the shooting.
