Woman Brings Two Friends Armed to Confront Ex After Threats, Police Say

A tense situation escalated dramatically late Sunday night when a 28-year-old woman allegedly showed up at her ex-boyfriend’s home with two friends, all armed with handguns, following a spree of threatening messages, authorities say.

The ex-boyfriend, who is in his early 30s, told police the woman had been “harassing him for days,” sending repeated and escalating threats. Around 11 p.m., the trio arrived outside his residence—and not empty-handed. He says she and her two companions stepped out of a vehicle, each brandishing pistols and demanding he open the door.

Officers arriving at the scene reported de-escalating a volatile stand-off. No shots were fired, but the presence of firearms and aggressive behavior prompted immediate arrests. The woman was taken into custody, along with both men, on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, unlawful carrying of a firearm, and intimidation.

The ex-boyfriend wasn’t injured. Police have not disclosed whether any weapons were recovered, but say all three suspects are being held without bond pending further investigation. Detectives are now piecing together what led to the confrontation and reviewing text and call logs for evidence.
