A 40-year old Frankfort, Kansas man has been arrested following an incident where a shot was fired into the front door glass of the La Fiesta Restaurant at 503 East Chestnut Street in Junction City Monday night.

The Junction City Police Department reported that Timothy L. Hedges, 40, Frankfort, was arrested Monday evening on suspicion of one count each of  Criminal Discharge of a Firearm at Occuppied Dwelling, Possession of a Firearm Under the Influence, Criminal Damage to Property, and  four counts of Aggravated Assault.

Junction City Police Chief Tim Brown explained that police received a call at 10:31 p.m. in reference to a person who had fired a shot through the glass. “Apparently the subject had attempted to enter the business when they were closing, was denied entrance, and apparently became upset, drew a weapon and fired a round into the business.” Brown added there were several people inside the business at the time.

The police chief confirmed the subject “fled the scene on a motorcycle. Police were able to locate the individual later on here at a local drinking establishment, and were able to arrest the individual and charge him with a number of offenses related to that shooting at La Fiesta.” Brown also confirmed Hedges was found in possession of a handgun when he was arrested. “So we have recovered the handgun in the matter.”

No one was injured during the incident at the restaurant.
