Man wanted for assault arrested following early morning disturbance

A shots fired investigation on West Seventh Street early Saturday morning led to the arrest of a Hopkinsville man on an indictment warrant for felony assault.

Officers responded to 1513 West Seventh about 3 a.m. and a report says 29-year old Tavaris Quarles of Hopkinsville was outside yelling profanity while others were trying to get him to go back inside a home.

He allegedly struggled with police and had to be tased to be placed in handcuffs.

A computer check showed he was wanted on a Christian County Grand Jury indictment warrant for first-degree assault and he’s facing new charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
