Attempted Murder Suspect Arrested
An early morning standoff Saturday led to the arrest of a West Virginia man. Huntington Police responding to a suicide call around 2:00 A.M. in the 1300 block of East Campbell Park Drive didn't realize they would end up running for their lives. Police say, when they approached the front porch of the home, Adam Daniel Perry, who was inside the home, opened fire with a shotgun, sending them back to their cruisers. After barricading himself in for about 45 minutes and shooting at the officers, Perry was arrested and charged with 20 counts of wanton endangerment and 4 felony counts of attempting to murder a police officer.
