CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Clarksville police have arrested a man involved in a domestic situation who temporarily barricaded himself inside an apartment.
On July 1 around 4:33 a.m., officers were called to a domestic related situation at an apartment in the 2600 block of Union Hall Rd. The female involved in the incident had already left the residence.
Police determined the male suspect was Hasaan Slaughter, who had two active warrants on file for domestic assault and a petition to revoke.
Around 5:01 a.m., officers were outside of the apartment with a friend of Slaughter who tried to convince him to come out and talk to officers.
After police received permission to enter the apartment, Slaughter fired a shot from inside. Officers backed out, evacuated residents from adjacent apartments that could be safely removed, surrounded the building, and called for Crisis Negotiators and the Tactical Team.
Around 5:28 a.m., negotiators were able to call Slaughter. He was successfully negotiated out, unharmed, and taken into custody around 7:30 a.m.
A 9mm handgun was recovered from inside the apartment.
Hasaan Slaughter, 27, was booked into Montgomery County Jail for DOMESTIC ASSAULT, PETITION TO REVOKE, TWO COUNTS of AGGRAVATED ASSAULT, AND POSSESSION OF A FIREARM DURING COMMISSION OF A FELONY. His bond was set at $252,500.
