The officers entered the home by kicking the door out of its frame. This happened because a serious report had been received by the police that the resident had threatened several people with death. The man was said to have a firearm in the house.
Ball Gun
The suspect was arrested around 7:30 PM on Thursday evening, and immediately afterward, the search for the alleged firearm began. It was found in one of the rooms in the house. The officers seized the weapon. It is likely a ball gun, but this is still being investigated. It is illegal to possess a firearm that closely resembles a real one, as it can be used to threaten people.
The victims of the threat filed a report, and officers heard witnesses about the facts that the suspect is alleged to have committed.
The arrested man is in custody. He may give a statement today about the facts charged against him. The alleged weapon has been seized. The officers also took a small amount of (possibly) drugs. Those drugs are still being tested.
