Around noontime Friday, April 9, Nassau County Police officers responded to a residence on Pennywood Avenue in Roosevelt after a report of a dispute between two men, one with a gun.
After an initial investigation and through interviews with multiple witnesses, officers confirmed that the suspect did brandish a rifle during the dispute with his neighbors, Nassau County Police said.
The suspect refused to speak with officers and refused entry, said police.
Further investigation confirmed the presence of a female resident and her two children within the home who were in fear for their lives and wanted to exit the home, according to police.
Officers immediately set up a perimeter around the house and requested assistance from the Emergency Services Unit and the Bureau of Special Operations.
Shortly after, and without injury or further incident, those efforts led to the arrest of Michael Glenn, age 67 years old, of Pennywood Avenue in Roosevelt, said police.
