BIG SPRING, Texas —
A barricaded subject was arrested on a warrant in Big Spring Wednesday night.
According to a Big Spring Police Department spokesperson, around 2:04 p.m., officers were dispatched to the 300 block of S. Main for a harassment call.
When officers got to the scene, they spoke with a person who told them that Jacob Galan, 32, was at 1607 S. Main and had made threats he was going to kill another resident.
Officers then responded to 1607 S. Main and contacted Galan, who had barricaded himself inside the home.
Galan told officers he would not come out and threatened to shoot them if they entered the home.
Officers had information that Galan was already wanted for a motion to adjudicate on an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge.
The BSPD and Howard County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team was activated, along with their Negotiators.
Those crews arrived on scene around 5 p.m. Galan refused to speak with them until tear gas was introduced.
Galan surrendered peacefully around 6:45 p.m. and was arrested on the warrant.
This is all the information we currently have on the situation. We will update this story if more details are released.
