ABOVE: An HN reader’s cellphone image/ HN edits CENTERVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS – In a wild takedown captured in gripping HN audio from Barnstable Police and a Massachusetts State Police helicopter’s radio transmissions, numerous officers and detectives flooded a quiet neighborhood after a woman reported a man had just threatened to shoot and murder her with a firearm, according to radio transmissions and sources. [DEVELOPING] Sources described the chilling incident as domestic in nature. The suspect, reportedly armed and disturbed, allegedly made the death threats before bolting from a home on Hillside Drive in a gray Jeep. Barnstable cops and state troopers descended on the area, locking down streets as a Massachusetts State Police helicopter made its way to the scene, eventually hovering overhead, and scouring the terrain from Craigville Beach to West Hyannisport. A Barnstable Police detective radioed that the suspect might be on foot or holed up near Craigville Pizza. Patrol units swiftly encircled the popular pizza joint, ready for a potential standoff should the suspect be inside. The fugitive wasn’t very far. Moments later, officers took him down on Craigville Beach Road at the intersection with Second Avenue. He was arrested without further incident and hauled to Barnstable Police Headquarters, facing serious felony charges tied to the alleged firearm threats. Hyannis News is actively working on gathering additional information and will hopefully have more details later this evening, which will be published here. The following HN “video” contains some of the dramatic audio from today’s ordeal… [HN “VIDEO” – PRESS PLAY] P.S. – Today’s Hytown Vignette is brought to you by Led Zeppelin…  [CLICK IT/CRANK IT!
