Just before 3:00 p.m. today, Terre Haute Police Department uniformed officers responded to the 900 block of 7th Avenue regarding a report of a male subject on a porch waving a shotgun. Vigo County Sheriff’s Deputies, who were nearby, also responded to assist.

As officers and deputies attempted to speak with the suspect, he fled on foot, abandoning the shotgun. A perimeter was quickly established, and a systematic search of the area was conducted. The suspect was soon located but again fled on foot, climbing onto the roof of a garage in an attempt to hide.

Officers were able to access the roof and take the suspect into custody without incident. The Terre Haute Fire Department was called to the scene to assist with a ladder truck to safely remove the suspect from the roof.

The individual was identified as Kenrick Martin, 40, of Terre Haute. Further Information will be released as permitted and the investigation allows.
