LAS CRUCES, N.M. —

Las Cruces police arrested a man Wednesday morning when he opened fire on a park, police said.

The shooting happened around 4 a.m. when police were called to the apartment of 28-year-old Emmanuel Talamantes.

They said Talamantes was drinking before and randomly firing two rounds from a rifle toward Young Park.

Talamantes has a prior drug conviction, which means by law he isn't allowed to have a gun.

He was charged with negligent use and possession.
