AUSTINTOWN -

A man was arrested after shots were fired during what Austintown Police described as a custody incident Sunday evening.

Township police officers were sent to the 5600 block of Baylor Drive after reports of shots being fired at 6:56 p.m. Police found several spent cartridge casings in the road.
