Sounds like you have been charged and probably as an accessory. If you haven't done so already, you need to hire an attorney.

You will be treated as if you fired the gun too.

Much more information is needed and you should not be discussing this online. Anything you say online can be traced back to you and potentially used against you, even if you are innocent. You should consult with a local criminal defense attorney.

You should plead NOT guilty and fight the matter. If you did not shoot or encourage others to shoot or have anything to do with it then you are not guilty.

It will depend on the circumstances, and what you are being charged with. You most certainly need an attorney and counsel. Your question does not provide sufficient details to form an opinion. The worst that could happen is that you would be found to be a co-conspirator with the persons who actually committed the act and treated, and punished, in the same manner.
