Deputies Arrested Man on Local Warrant after Family Violence Call on Dexter
The Josephine County Sheriff's Office arrested a man for domestic violence and an outstanding warrant in the Fish Hatchery area last night.
According to the Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to a domestic disturbance at a home in the 300-block of Dexter Way on Wednesday shortly after 9 p.m..
Deputies said the property owner called 9-1-1 to report that their adult son was out of control. The caller said the 35-year-old male subject had a club in his hand and screamed that he was going to hit them with it. Fortunately, no one was injured.
Upon arrival, deputies set up a perimeter around the residence that contained the suspect, his wife and a child. When he spotted law enforcement, he turned off the outside lights and retreated into the back part of the home. He eventually gave up and was placed into custody.
The suspect was found to be wanted on a Grants Pass Police Department warrant for failing to appear in court for Disorderly Conduct. He was lodged in jail on the warrant plus a new charge of Domestic Menacing.
