Former Turnstile guitarist arrested for attempted murder

SILVER SPRING, Md. - The former guitarist for Turnstile, a popular band from Baltimore, was arrested for attempted murder on Tuesday. 

What we know:

Brady Ebert, 33, of Silver Spring is accused of hitting William Yates, Turnstile lead singer Brendan Yate's father, with a car. 

Police responded to a report of a pedestrian struck on Timberlake Drive on March 29, per court documents. 

According to the documents, William Yate's daughter, Ering Gerber and her husband Christopher Gerger were getting their kids from the car to go into the house when Ebert drove up to their house "honking his horn and yelling obscenities." 

William Yates can be seen in a neighbor's security video coming down the driveway of the home to warn the couple that Ebert was approaching the house in his car. 

Ebert swerved toward Yates in the driveway, who backed up to avoid being hit and threw a rock at Ebert. Ebert backed up into the driveway before making a sharp turn to hit Yates before making another turn towards Erin Gerber and her 3-year-old son before driving away. 

Yates was severely injured on both of his legs, per court documents. 

The backstory:

Ebert and Yates grew up together in Maryland and formed Turnstile in 2010. Ebert was Turnstile's lead guitarist until August 2022. 

Earlier this year, Ebert made comments on social media about the band not caring "at all about ethics or social issues in general." 

Turnstile won their first Grammys for Best Rock Album and Best Metal Performance. 

What's next:

Ebert has a bond hearing scheduled for Thursday at 1 p.m.
