A drug deal near a Monroe County housing development on Thursday evening led to a shooting that left one man injured, state police said.
Jahfari Michael Kamdar, 20, of East Stroudsburg, is facing felony charges of attempted homicide, felony aggravated assault, felony robbery, felony firearms not to be carried without a license, and felony criminal use of a communications facility.
Kamdar was arraigned Saturday before District Judge Paul J. Gasper, who denied bail. He was then taken to the Monroe County Prison. Court records did not immediately list any attorney information for Kamdar.
Pennsylvania State Police in Stroudsburg responded shortly before 6:30 p.m. to the area of Edward Smith Boulevard and Milford Road (Route 209) in Middle Smithfield Township for a reported single shot fired.
The male victim called 911 and reported to investigators being shot through his right index finger and into in his right thigh. State police on Friday said the victim is expected to survive his injuries.
