Time: 8:17:00 PM
Division: Falcon -- Shift II
Title: Disturbance
Location: 6300 block of Leadville Circle

Summary:

At about 2017 hrs., 03/25/14, officers from the Falcon Division were dispatched to a residence in the 6300 block of Leadville Circle to investigate a family disturbance.

Upon arrival officers discovered that a disturbance between and husband and wife had escalated throughout the evening. The wife had contacted her daughter and son-in-law and asked them to respond to the home due to her husband’s rants and statements involving a shotgun in the home.

The son-in-law retrieved a handgun and he and his wife responded to the location. While the parties were all in the home the son-in-law heard his mother-in-law and wife screaming during a disturbance with his father-in-law, who was heavily intoxicated. The son-in-law confronted the father-in-law, who threatened his life, and began approaching him. The son-in-law fired two rounds from the handgun into the floor of the home as a warning to the father-in-law. The father-in-law stopped and all the parties took him to the ground and held him until police arrived and ordered them out of the home.

Officers were able to contact the father-in-law on the second floor of the home and detain him without incident.

The son-in-law was charged for Discharge of a Weapon.
