(KMZA)--A Sabetha man, who was shot by officers last week after firing a nail gun at them, has been arrested.

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation said 38-year-old Kelly Hall was arrested Thursday for aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer.

The KBI said Hall was arrested following his release from a Topeka hospital where he had been receiving medical treatment. He was booked into the Nemaha County Jail and later released on a $25,000 own recognizance bond.

Officers from the Sabetha Police Department and deputies from Nemaha County Sheriff's Office tired to convince Hall to exit his home the evening of October 20 after responding to a report of man threatening suicide. He eventually did, holding an air-powered nail gun that he used to shoot at officers. Two officers, one from each agency, fired back and injured Hall.

No officers were injured during the incident.

Hall is scheduled to appear in Nemaha County Court November 9.
