Monday evening, around 8PM, Boyle County Sheriff's Deputy Abbott responded to the area of US150/Cocanougher Rd. for a report of multiple shots fired.
A male subject was located outside a nearby residence. When Deputy Abbott attempted contact, the man was in an agitated state and talking out of his head. He then ran toward the back of the residence where he picked up a shotgun and pointed it toward the Deputy. After a standoff of several minutes, the male identified as Danny Crowe of Cocanougher Rd. (who was confirmed to be under the influence of alcohol) finally dropped the weapon and was taken into custody.
Crowe was arrested and charged with Wanton Endangerment 1st Degree - Police Officer, Disorderly Conduct 2nd Degree, and Menacing.
Officers from the Danville Police Department responded to the scene as well.
