LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18)– A man is facing several charges after he allegedly pointed a gun at his neighbors and stripped on his front porch.

It happened around 6:36 p.m. at a residence on Greenleaf Drive.

According to an arrest citation, 49-year-old Johnathon Horn shined a bright light at his neighbors from his porch. When he turned the light off, the victims noticed he had been pointing a rifle at them.

Officers were able to talk Horn out of his residence and during questioning he reportedly became angry and stripped off his clothes, exposing himself to the victims and to officers.

Horn was taken to the Fayette County Detention Center and charged with two counts of first-degree wanton endangerment and one count of second-degree indecent exposure.
