A man was arrested after firing shots at officers with the Warsaw Police Department.

The ordeal began around 10:45 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 19, when officers were called to check out a burglar alarm coming from a home in the 2200 block of Dubois Drive, near Kosciusko Community Hospital, according to a news release from Warsaw Police.

On arrival, officers found the front door glass broken.

As officers checked the exterior of the residence, an officer observed a man, identified as Daniel S. Vanderpool, 54, inside through a window, the news release stated.

The officer watched Vanderpool walk to a barricaded area and turn around and make eye contact with the officer though the window. Vanderpool then crouched down and fired a shot toward where the officer had been, according to the news release.

Officers at the residence attempted to get Vanderpool to drop his weapons and come out but he refused and continued to threaten to shoot at police, the news release stated.

After negotiations failed, several gas canisters were fired into the residence.

Just before 1:30 a.m. Vanderpool walked out the front door and was taken into custody.

Police found three handguns and a shotgun that had been fired inside the home. The alarm panel was tore off the wall and another bullet hole was located inside the residence, the news release stated.

It turns out Vanderpool, who was intoxicated and on several medications, lived at the home and became upset when he could not turn off the alarm system, the news release stated.

Vanderpool is being held in the Kosciusko County Jail on initial charges of criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon.
