an elderly friend has been told by acquaintance that he was arested for "attempted murder" for pointing a gun at a neighbor. Supposedly police arrived on the property w/ guns drawn, made the arrest, locked the house but did not search for a weapon. Of course he says there is no gun and none pointed at anyone - even if there was, would this legally be called "attempted murder" - or in reality, would it be some form of assault w/ deadly weapon? I think my elderly friends are being lied to. This is in the state of Washington.
