It has been a wild year for founding Turnstile guitarist Brady Ebert, who went from suing his former band to running over the father of lead singer Brendan Yates.

Originally arrested March 31 and charged with attempted second-degree murder, a Maryland grand jury indicted the hardcore guitarist Thursday on an upgraded charge of attempted first-degree murder, according to the Baltimore Banner.

Authorities also charged Ebert with attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault, and two counts of second-degree assault for the March 29 altercation, which police say was captured on a neighbor's surveillance camera.

He has been held without bond in the Montgomery County Correctional Facility in Boyds, Maryland, ever since.

According to the Banner, Ebert drove down Timberlake Drive in Silver Spring, Maryland, while honking the horn of his 2001 Buick LeSabre. He then swerved toward William Yates, 79, before backing up and striking the elderly man in a driveway, police said.

Before Ebert hit him, William Yates threw a rock at the troubled guitarist's car in an attempt to warn his daughter, Erin Gerber, and her three-year-old son, who had to be dragged into the front yard to evade Ebert, police said.

Assistant State’s Attorney Dominic Plantamura said Ebert hurt William Yates bad enough that a bone was sticking out of his leg, the Banner reported.

While at a local hospital, William Yates told investigators that Ebert had been harassing his family since Turnstile cut ties with him, the newspaper reported.

Ebert is next due in court on May 8. He previously maintained his innocence, telling a district court commissioner, "This is pure self-defense," the Banner reported.

Turnstile officially elaborated on their split with Ebert one day after a Baltimore judge denied the band's request for final peace orders against Ebert.

“Turnstile cut ties with Brady Ebert in 2022 in response to a consistent pattern of harmful behavior affecting himself, the band, and the community,” Turnstile previously said in a statement. “After exhausting every available resource to support his access to help and recovery, a boundary ultimately had to be set when healthy communication was no longer possible and he began threatening violence.

“In the years since, his baseless tirades have continued in public. We never addressed it. We chose to protect his privacy and the circumstances around his departure, even when he did nothing to be deserving of that protection. Over the past few months, his threats only escalated further. … We have no language left for Brady.”

Not long after the altercation, William Yates introduced the band in a video message before Turnstile's set at this year's Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival. "To all the fans out there, we love you and Turnstile loves you, and enjoy the ride," he said in the video.

If convicted, Ebert potentially faces life in prison for the attempted first-degree murder charge and a maximum 30-year sentence for the second-degree attempted murder charge under Maryland law.
