Days after being placed as the No. 1 fugitive in Clayton County, a Jonesboro man was booked into the county’s jail.

Joshua Rashad Miller, 28, was arrested Tuesday on six charges after threatening his ex-girlfriend Friday and firing gunshots in her home, the Clayton County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.

He’s accused of going to her home and pointing a gun at her with a child present. No one was struck by the gunfire.

No other information was released.

He faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, discharging a firearm on another person's property, aiming a gun at another, theft by taking, criminal trespass and misdemeanor child cruelty, jail records show.
