    A suspect is now in custody after a pursuit involving Kansas Highway Patrol troopers and Geary County police.
    Chris Charles Henington was arrested just a little after 8 a.m. Wednesday and was handed over to the Geary County Sheriff’s Office for pending charges.
    The Geary County Sheriff’s Office says the incident started at 2800 West Lyons Creek Road.
    The residents inside the home called police about a man armed with a shotgun who was attempting to enter the house.
    Residents say that Henington was yelling at the occupants in the home, claiming he lived there while aimlessly firing off rounds from the shotgun.
    When deputies arrived on scene, Henington made his way back to his vehicle and fired one shot before leaving in the van.
    No one was hurt at the scene and it is yet to be determined if any property was damaged.
    Deputies chased the van south on Lyons Creek Road and into a pasture about one-half mile off the roadway into Dickinson County.
    Kansas Highway Patrol air craft responded and flew over the standoff.
    Henington shot at the aircraft multiple times.
    KHP Special Response Team, along with Geary County/Junction City SWAT surrounded the perimeter.
    KHP negotiators were able to contact Henington by phone and got him to surrender without incident.
