Gun Brandished, 4 Arrested

By Herald Staff

COURT HOUSE –– Two adults and two juveniles were arrested over the weekend after police received reports of a disturbance occurring on Ellen Avenue.
On Nov. 25 at approximately 11:43 a.m., Middle Township police arrived at the residence and learned that one of the suspects brandished a handgun and made threats during the incident, which turned out to be an argument with a neighbor over an earlier burglary incident, according to police.
Police arrested four males and obtained a search warrant. During the search, police found a loaded 9mm handgun and ammunition.
Charged were: Claude L. Nelson, 19, of Court House, with aggravated assault with a weapon, possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes, terroristic threats and disorderly conduct, $15,000 bail; James Allen, 19, of Court House, disorderly conduct, released; and two juveniles, disorderly conduct, released to parents.
Police are also investigating whether these subjects were involved in earlier reports of shots being fired in the neighborhood of Ellen Avenue.
The case is being investigated by Patrolman Dan Martin and Detective Clint Stocker.
