(Florence, Ky.) - An arrest has been made following a shooting incident at a fast food restaurant in northern Kentucky.
Florence Police today announced the arrest of Eli Nunez.
The 19-year-old from Union, Kentucky is charged with Assault 1st Degree (Attempt), Wanton Endangerment 1st Degree, and Criminal Mischief 1st Degree.

Nunez is currently held in the Boone County Detention Center.
