LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ)- We now know the name of the man arrested Saturday night in Lexington after a police standoff.
He is 31-year-old Javier Bohorquez.
Police went to a home on Augusta Court around 8 p.m. for a shots fired call.
Officers say after talking to family members they learned Bohorquez had gotten angry during a fight with family members, fired a couple shots outside, then came back inside and barricaded himself.

Eventually, negotiators got Bohorquez to surrender.
He’s now behind bars in Fayette County, facing wanton endangerment charges.
