Police have arrested one of three men accused of breaking into a Hot Springs woman’s home and threatening to “shoot the house up,” the Hot Springs Sentinel-Record reported.
According to a probable cause affidavit cited by the newspaper, three assailants kicked in the door at the woman's home in the 200 block of Garland Avenue and threatened her mother, saying they would return to “shoot the house up."
A few hours after the woman reported the crime on Tuesday, officers responded to a shooting at the residence. Someone had driven by and fired multiple times, hitting the home in six places, police wrote. No injuries have been reported, and police haven't determined who fired the shots.
Around 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, officers arrested 30-year-old Cedrix Noah Griffin on charges stemming from the break-in including residential burglary and first-degree terroristic threatening. He remained at Garland County jail in lieu of $100,000 bond Friday afternoon.
At that time, police were still looking for two other suspects identified as 19-year-old Michael Dewayne Collins Jr. and 19-year-old Jalontae Lorise Blevins. They will also face charges tied to the break-in, police said.
