CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Authorities in Montgomery County have arrested a man they say was barricaded in a church and locked himself in a pantry.
Deputies said they had a report of an unknown man entering Lifepoint Church on Friday after crashing his vehicle nearby.
They added that the man, later identified as 35-year-old Jose Salvador Martinez would not communicate with negotiators and that deputies had to push the door open to attempt further contact.
He reportedly became physically resistant and combative and was taken into custody.
This is an active investigation. No other information is available for release at this time. If anyone witnessed the crash or has any information associated with Martinez, please contact Sgt. Inman at 931-648-0611 ext 13424.
