Pulaski County Sheriff Bobby Jones reports the arrest of a Eubank man after a brief standoff.

On April 21, 2024, deputies received a report of a domestic altercation on Dustin Ln.,
Eubank, KY. The caller stated her ex-boyfriend, Thomas Stogsdill, 23 years of age, Eubank, KY,
had assaulted her, put a gun to her head and wouldn’t let her leave the residence for fear of
further assault or serious physical injury. The victim was able to eventually get away from
Stogsdill and fled the residence prior to calling 911.

A warrant for Stogsdill was issued, charging him with Wanton Endangerment 1 st Degree,
Assault 4 th Degree Domestic Violence, and Kidnapping.

On April 22, 2024, at approximately 12:29 pm, deputies went to the residence on Dustin
Ln. to attempt to serve the warrant on Stogsdill. Deputies were advised that witnesses had seen
Stogsdill going into the residence moments prior to their arrival, and recognized Stogsdill’s car
in the back yard. Attempts were made to have Stogsdill exit the residence to be taken into
custody safely, but he failed to do so.

Deputies and Troopers with Kentucky State Police eventually made entry into the
residence, where they found Stogsdill hiding. After taking Stogsdill into custody, a search
incident to arrest led to the discovery of suspected narcotics in his pockets that will be sent to the
Kentucky State Police Laboratory for further testing.

Stogsdill was lodged in the Pulaski County Detention Center on the Pulaski District
Court warrant for Wanton Endangerment 1 st Degree, Assault 4 th Degree Domestic Violence, and
Kidnapping, along with another Pulaski District Court warrant for Failure to Appear. The
investigation into the domestic violence related charges are being further investigated by
Detective Branson Patterson, while the investigation into the suspected controlled substances
found at the time of arrest is being conducted by Deputy Logan Crabtree.

The Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office was assisted at the scene of the standoff by the
Kentucky State Police and the Somerset Police Department.
