Niagara Falls Police responded to the 1800 block of Linwood Avenue around 4am on February 19th after reports of an argument.
Upon arrival, officers made contact with the complainant via cell phone as she would not open the door, citing a fear for her safety. She stated that on today’s date around 2/2:30am her male friend came to her apartment to “hang out.” However, he arrived drunk and immediately started arguing with her.
She asked the male to leave several times and he refused. As the back and forth continued, he took out a black handgun and placed it to her head adamant that he would not leave.
The complainant told police she was able to “calm [him] down slightly,” which allowed her to escape the apartment and run out yelling for help. Another tenant heard the yelling and told her to stay in her apartment until police arrived.
Officers then made contact with the male who was still on scene. He was immediately taken into custody and placed in the rear of a patrol vehicle.
Officers entered the apartment to ascertain the extent of damage caused by the male suspect. They observed a broken window and damaged wooden door. The damage was estimated to be worth $250-500.
The complainant wished to press charges and to obtain a full stay away order of protection. The male was transported to police headquarters for booking and processing.
