A man accused of waving a gun in front of children in a bowling alley in October was arrested earlier this month, officials said.

Javan Nurse, 39, allegedly pulled a gun during a fight with a woman at the Fayetteville Fun Bowl, Fayetteville police spokesman Lt. Mike Whitlow said.

Deputies caught up with Nurse after a months-long search and, after being identified in a lineup, Nurse was charged with aggravated assault, cruelty to children, reckless conduct and making terroristic threats.

He was booked into jail April 4.
