LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) — Police have arrested a man for wanton endangerment, after they say he opened fire after a soccer game in July of 2017.

According to police, the shooting happened at Coolavin Park on West Sixth Street.

They say Juan Esparza began arguing with another person following a soccer game, which led him to get a gun from his car and start firing into the air and ground.
