Mark Thomas Reno of Jefferson City has been charged with damaging federal property for allegedly firing on the John J. Duncan Federal Office Building in downtown Knoxville on July 3. U.S. Magistrate Judge Jill McCook yesterday ordered Reno jailed without bond pending further proceedings in the case, Tennessee Lookout reports. Records show that Reno was already the target of a federal probe when the alleged shooting occurred. He told an undercover agent that he was at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 though officials say there is no proof that he entered the building or engaged in any other illegal activity.
