Marc Veturis, age 28, of Waterbury, pleaded not guilty on Wednesday, Jan. 11, to charges of armed assault with intent to murder, assault and battery by discharging a firearm, attempted kidnapping, unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and unlawful possession of a loaded firearm, the Northwestern District Attorney's Office said. 

Officials have not released much about the shooting so far. Police allege Veturis shot a 59-year-old man in the shoulder, and paramedics rushed him to Baystate Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries, authorities said. 

Veturis ran away from the area and was later arrested in Connecticut, police said. 

A dangerous hearing for Veturis is set for Jan. 17, where a judge will determine if he is fit for pre-trial release.
