A Monterey County Superior Court jury recently convicted a man of assaulting a peace officer and other charges for actions he took prior to being shot and paralyzed by officers in 2019, the Monterey County District Attorney announced Wednesday.

The jury found 27-year-old Ari Gold, of Salinas, guilty of four charges: assault with a semiautomatic firearm on a peace officer, brandishing a firearm in the presence of a peace officer, driving under the influence of a drug and hit-and-run.

The convictions stem from a series of incidents July 23, 2019, after Gold smoked a substantial amount of marijuana and methamphetamine, prosecutors said. Officers responded by shooting a total of 44 rounds at Gold, with two shots hitting him. Gold did not fire his weapon, according to the District Attorney's Office.
