Pueblo Police: Suspect tased, arrested after threatening ex-girlfriend with baseball bat

Pueblo Police Department

PUEBLO, Colo. (KRDO) -- A domestic dispute late Saturday night came to a safe resolution.

Just before midnight, officers responded to a reported domestic disturbance and shot fired on Woodsorrel Court. Investigators say the ex-boyfriend of a woman there showed up with a baseball bat after allegedly sending her threatening messages.

The woman's stepfather went outside with a pistol to get the man to leave, and accidentally fired off around, according to Pueblo Police.

No one was hurt, but when officers arrived, they say the ex was still there, holding a bat. When he wouldn't respond to commands to drop it, officers say they tased him and took him into custody.
