BAVARIA - A Bavaria man was arrested early Sunday morning on multiple requested charges that included aggravated assault, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, and domestic battery in connection to an incident at his residence.
Deputies were sent to the 2300 block of S. Midland Road in Bavaria for the report of a disturbance that included shots fired between midnight and 3 a.m. Sunday, Saline County Undersheriff Brent Melander said this morning.
Deputies interviewed several people who had been at a party at the residence. Melander said there were multiple victims in the case, including a 36-year-old woman who witnesses said had been pistol whipped. She suffered facial injuries. Other victims included a 29-year-old woman, a 28-year-old man, a 40-year-old woman, and two juveniles.
Ryan Will, 44, of Bavaria, was arrested on the following requested charges, Melander said.
Four counts of aggravated assault
Two counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon
Two counts of endangering a child
Interference with law enforcement

A search of Will's residence uncovered two large caliber handguns that had been involved in the incident, Melander said. Multiple witnesses said that the guns had been fired into the ground.
Alcohol may have played a part in the incident, Melander added.
