Man Threatens to Blow Off Woman's Head after Arrested by Niagara Falls Police

Niagara Falls Police responded to the 1300 block of Pierce Avenue around 4pm on April 23rd after reports of a subject with a gun that was later changed to menacing.

Upon arrival, officers observed a male walking on the north side of the street. A female then stated to officers, “that’s him, he had the gun” and pointed at the male suspect.

The suspect complied with Officers’ commands and was placed into custody. No weapons were located on the suspect when a pat down was completed. He was then put into the rear of a patrol vehicle.

The complainant stated to police that she was on the sidewalk in front of a residence at 1:50pm when she saw the suspect across the street. She told police that the suspect is known to her because her brother is married to his stepdaughter.

The complainant stated that the suspect and her have some history because of family tension. She stated the suspect started to yell at her from across the street, saying, “I’m gonna murder your brother,” and then proceeded to pull out a small black handgun and pointed it at her.

The suspect then got into an SUV and drove away. After a couple of minutes the suspect returned to the scene just prior to police arriving. The female said she was in fear of her life because she thought he was going to fire the gun.

While in the rear of officers’ patrol vehicle, he did yell out the rear window at the complainant, “when I get out I’m going to blow your head off bi*ch.”

He was transported to police headquarters for booking and processing.
