BECKLEY (WVVA) - Police have arrested a Beckley man after shots were fired at a home.

22-year old Anthony Johnson of Beckley was arrested Thursday on three counts of wanton endangerment with a firearm and one count of a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.

The incident occurred in the 200-block of Church Street. Police say Johnson knew the people who live in the house he shot at.

Johnson is on probation for robbery and is a suspect for shots fired at a Beckley apartment complex off Ewart Avenue a few weeks ago.

Police say he is also wanted for possession of a firearm during a traffic stop last year.  During the traffic stop, the suspect in an Oak Hill murder, Terreque Grey, was riding in the passenger seat.
