JACKSONVILLE, Fla -- Jacksonville Sheriff's Office SWAT team was called out to a house near downtown Jacksonville, just blocks from Jacksonville Municipal Stadium where the Gate River Run events were taking place.
Police responded to a domestic violence call at 1548 Pasco Street. When they arrived they found that 23-year-old Rico McMillan had battered his girlfriend while he was brandishing a handgun and making threats. The couple's three children were present in the house at the time as well.
Police tell us they attempted to talk McMillan into coming out of the house, but he refused. He also refused to speak with officers at the scene and SWAT team.
Nearly three hours later, SWAT officers went into the house and arrested McMillan without injury to anyone.
