MIDLAND, Texas — A Midland man is facing multiple charges after Midland Police responded to a welfare check on July 31.
The incident occurred around 6:30 p.m. in the 3400 block of Roosevelt.
According to an arrest affidavit, the woman who lives there texted her daughter to call 911.
The daughter believed her dad was there. She told officers he was not in his right state of mind and had threatened her mom with a gun before.
Officers confirmed Sergio Castillo Castorena, the husband, was inside.
They set up a perimeter and used a loudspeaker to call him out.
The affidavit says officers were told Castorena had a gun on him and was refusing to let his wife out, so the SWAT team was called in and they finally arrested Castorena.
The report says the wife told officers Castorena hid in the house, chased her with a knife, restrained her and held a knife to her throat, preventing her from calling for help.
It also says he claimed she didn't want him to go outside so he wouldn't get hurt by officers.
He claimed she tried to cut herself with a knife, threatening to kill herself if he didn't want her anymore.
Castorena was taken to the Midland County Detention Center. He is facing charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, interfering with an emergency call and unlawful restraint.
The investigation is still ongoing and we will continue to update this story as we receive more information.
