A Kentucky man has been accused of firing two shots at his juvenile son after losing to the boy in arm wrestling and then holding deputies at bay for eight hours before surrendering. Curtis Zimmerman, 55, of Florence, was arrested on an endangerment charge after being taken into custody by members of the Boone County SWAT team, according to the Boone County Sheriff's Office. The boy, whose age wasn't released, wasn't injured. Deputies were called to Zimmerman’s home around 1 a.m. for a report of a subject with a weapon. When they got there, they found Zimmerman holed up in the house alone. The Sheriff’s Office Hostage Negotiation Team convinced Zimmerman to surrender. The Facebook post quoted Zimmerman as telling deputies that he was aiming at the ceiling when he fired the gun. Zimmerman was taken to a hospital for an evaluation after his arrest and his bond was set at $5,000.

How society thinks police should do their jobs

Atlanta police released a surveillance video of the person they described as a person of interest in the recent killing of 8-year-old Secoriea Turner, which drew the rebuke of top city officials. The shooting on Saturday night occurred near the Wendy’s parking lot where Rayshard Brooks was shot and killed by police last month. The area near the restaurant has given way to unrest and reports of armed protesters and roadblocks at the location. The killing attracted the attention of the city’s Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms who held an impassioned press conference about the girl’s killing on the Fourth of July. Fox 5 Atlanta reported that city police have doubled the previous reward for information in the killing to $20,000. The station reported that the video shows one of two men police would like it interview. Police believe two men fired shots at the car. Police described the person of interest in the video as a Black man in a white T-shirt and AR-15.
