WAYNE COUNTY, Ky. (ABC36 NEWS NOW) — A Wayne County man is facing serious charges after deputies say he fired multiple shots inside his home and at a neighboring house while intoxicated.

Deputies responded late Tuesday night to a residence on Highway 776, where they learned family members were inside and potentially in danger. After setting up a perimeter, officers made a forcible entry and found Garry Maziarz  in an upstairs bedroom.

According to the sheriff’s office, Maziarz resisted arrest and had to be tased before being taken into custody.
