Yes, you should be arraigned within 72 hours. Yes, you are most likely eligible for probation if you have a clean record and there are no aggravating circumstances. Otherwise, it is impossible to advise you without knowing full facts.

Re: firearm in car

Yes, you do have 72 hours to be arraigned. Whether or not you qualify for probation depends on several factors. Without more information it would be speculation. If a gunshot residue test was done that would indicate the gun was fired, which could indicate that this is serious case, even for the people in the car who did not fire the gun. You would do yourself a service to consult with an attorney.

Good luck,
