(KAIR)--A Leavenworth man faces numerous charges in Atchison County, accused of firing a handgun as part of an argument.
Sheriff Jack Laurie says it happened in Cummings Sunday afternoon, where a woman reported that 22-year-old Brandon Ross fired multiple rounds from a handgun as he left a residence in a vehicle.
The shooting came after Ross allegedly had been arguing with people at the residence.
Children were present at the location, while another child was in the vehicle with Ross as he drove away.
According to Laurie, bullet casings were recovered at the scene of the alleged shooting.
Laurie says Ross was located later in Leavenworth where he was arrested on charges of aggravated assault, aggravated endangerment of a child, and criminal discharge of a firearm.
Initially booked into the Atchison County Jail on the charges, Ross was later freed on a bond of $25,000.
