(KAIR)--A weekend dispute, in Effingham, led to a single shot fired, and to the arrest of an Effingham man.

That’s according to a release from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, who says 51-year-old Brian Kuykendall was taken into custody on two counts of aggravated assault, battery, and criminal damage to property.

The report outlines Kuykendall’s alleged crimes, which Laurie says happened Saturday night, shortly before midnight, with Deputies called to 316 George Street, in Effingham, for the report of shots fired.

The investigation that followed their arrival revealed that Kuykendall had, that night, been involved in a verbal argument with a woman who lived with him at the home. According to the report, Kuykendall left the residence during the argument, but returned a short time later, engaging in a separate altercation with a man, who Laurie identifies as a neighbor. Kuykendall again left the area, allegedly returning a short time later, this time going into his home to retrieve a rifle. Going outside, he then allegedly pointed it at both the neighbor he’d earlier argued with, and a woman, also identified as a neighbor. When the two fled into their nearby home, it’s alleged that Kuykendall went to that residence, attempting to break in through a back door. Told several times by the neighbor to leave, Kuykendall refused, leading the neighbor to fire one round of a shotgun. Kuykendall escaped unhurt, leaving the neighboring home to return to his own residence, which is where he was located by Deputies when they arrived.

Following his arrest, Kuykendall was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
