On 11/28/22 at 1213 hrs. deputies from the Caroline County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to 421 Main Street Goldsboro, Maryland for a reported tow truck operator having a shot gun pointed at him. The complainant further stated that the male pointing the shotgun at him was threatening to shoot him if he did not release the vehicle he was attempting to repossess and leave the property.
When the operator stated he was calling the police, the suspect also made threats towards law enforcement.
Deputies attempted to make contact with the suspect at the residence, who refused to speak to deputies and ordered them off his property. After all efforts were exhausted to get the suspect to exit his residence and surrender to police, a Crisis Negotiation Team and Tactical Response Team was requested to respond from the Easton Police Department.
After hours of negotiation the suspect surrendered himself to law enforcement and was taken into custody at 1623 hrs. The suspect was charged with first degree assault, second degree assault, reckless endangerment and Rifle/Shotgun Poss-Disqualification because of a final protective order.
