Police announced the arrest of an Elmira resident in the city of Canandaigua after an indictment was handed up for menacing a police officer after a shooting this past spring.
Thomas Johnson, 34, was charged with one count of menacing a police officer.
The indictment stemmed from an incident on May 1, which happened around 1:30 p.m. on South Main Street.

He was processed without incident and transported to the Ontario County jail for arraignment.
