MISSOULA – Police officers were called to the 1100 block of West Broadway at approximately 2:30 a.m. on Tuesday, January 24, 2023, for a report of a violent crime that was committed.
Missoula Police Department spokeswoman Whitney Bennett tells MTN News an 18-year-old man ran from police and entered a motorhome on Toole Avenue.
The man refused to come out and Bennett says a shelter-in-place order went into effect for the neighborhood at around 5:30 am.
The suspect was eventually taken into custody without incident and was taken to a hospital.
The shelter-in-place order — which was in effect for Toole Avenue between Burton and Scott streets — was lifted at around 6:30 a.m.
The suspect - whose name has not been released at this point - is being held in the Missoula County Detention Center on pending charges of assault with a weapon.
