A domestic disturbance call at Canterbury House Apartments in Lebanon escalated quickly Monday, bringing in tactical officers, crisis negotiators and a police drone before a 28-year-old man was arrested on a slate of felony and misdemeanor charges, according to Lebanon police.
Police Account And Arrest Details
In a statement posted online, Lebanon Police Department said officers were dispatched to the Canterbury complex Monday for a reported domestic incident. Once on scene, they requested help from the Boone County Special Response Team, crisis negotiators and Lebanon PD’s drone unit before moving in.
Police identified the suspect as 28-year-old Marcus Dains and reported that he was taken into custody "without further incident." The department’s release lists the following alleged offenses: intimidation with a deadly weapon (Level 5 felony); two counts of strangulation, one described as "resulting in physical symptoms/injury" (Level 6 felonies); pointing a firearm and criminal confinement (Level 6 felonies); and domestic battery (Class A misdemeanor).
Where It Happened And Why SRT Was Called
The call originated from Canterbury House Apartments, a complex north of I-65 at 515 Dogwood Drive in Lebanon. Boone County’s Special Response Team has in recent years been deployed for high-risk scenes and community demonstrations, as coverage of the county’s response teams in Officer.com has noted. That recent history helps explain why Lebanon officers called in outside tactical and negotiation support on this case.
Legal Status And Next Steps
Lebanon police stressed that the charges outlined in the post are allegations and that Dains is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court. The department did not release booking details, bond information or initial court dates. Additional case information may be made public after formal charges are filed or an arraignment is held, according to the Lebanon Police Department.
