Twenty-nine-year-old David Peer has been charged on several counts, including arson in the first degree and unlawful use of a weapon. Police say this all unfolded on Friday on Skidmore Street when shots were fired inside of an apartment. This led to some neighboring residents being evacuated and a shelter in place for others. During the standoff, a fire was started in the apartment and Peer allegedly pointed a gun out of a window. About three hours later, Peer surrendered and was taken into custody.
