(KAIR)--A McLouth man is jailed in Jefferson County, following a confrontation with authorities Friday night.
Sheriff Jeff Herrig says his office was called to a McLouth residence where 18-year-old Dalten Anderson was allegedly exhibiting violent behavior, refusing to come out of a room in the home. “He was held up in his room, in his parents house, in McLouth,” Herrig tells MSC News. “We went over to deal with him, and he was wielding a sword and ax, and from there we arrested him.”
Herrig says that Anderson, during the confrontation with authorities, shot a deputy with an airsoft gun.
He was taken into custody on charges including aggravated assault, interference with a law enforcement officer, and criminal damage to property.
He was booked into the Jefferson County Jail where he remains.
