New information -- about a Bentonville man involved in a four hour police standoff earlier this week.
Lincoln Estill is being held in the Benton County Detention Center on a $100,000 bond.
According to court documents, Estill fired a rifle several times inside a home where a woman and child were present. They both got out okay, but officers were forced to evacuate neighbors after Estill barricaded himself inside the home with a gun. Hostage negotiators eventually convinced him to surrender peacefully.
His arraignment is scheduled for April 9.
