A family feud on Facebook led to a report of shots being fired and nine arrests for disorderly conduct Tuesday night. Units from Warsaw Police, Winona Lake Police Department and Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Department responded at 11:53 p.m. to 1748 S. Blue Spruce Road off of Country Club Drive south of Warsaw, after Kosciusko County Dispatch recieved a call of shots being fired. After responding officers spoke with witnesses and involved parties, it was found that the incident escalated from an argument the previous evening on Facebook with threats made against family members, according to First Sergeant Chad Hill, KCSD public information officer. It was unclear how many shots were fired, as one witness reportedly heard only one shot while another reported hearing multiple shots. No one was injured and no damage was found as a result of the shots fired. Arrested were: Korey L. Slone, 27, of 1671 S. CR 950W, Mentone; William D. Milligan, 25, South Bend; Christian L. Taylor, 21, South Bend; Douglas E. Marsillett II, 23, of 2836 E. Wooster Road, Warsaw; Awamain D. Price, 23, South Bend; Mariah L. Konkle, 21, of 1823 N. Vicky Lane, Warsaw; Travis J.
