HIS
HOME ON TAYLOR STREET FOR
SEVERAL
HOURS.
GABBY EASTERWOOD WAS ON THE
SCENE ALL
NIGHT AND GABBY YOU ACTUALLY
SPOKE WITH
THE MAN WHO REFUSED TO SURRENDER
TO POLICE?
TASHAWN MALLORY SPOKE WITH US ON
THE PHONE WHILE HE WAS INSIDE
HIS HOME AND
HE TELLS US ALONG WITH POLICE
NOW THAT
IT ALL STARTED WITH AN ARGUMENT
BETWEEN HIM AND HIS GIRLFRIEND
ACCORDING TO POLICE, A NEIGHBOR
CALLED
AFTER HEARING THE COUPLE ARGUING
ON
THEIR FRONT LAWN.
AFTER OFFICERS ARRIVED ON SCENE
THEY SAY MALLORY BECAME
AGGRESSIVE
AND TOLD THEM IF THEY DID NOT
LEAVE HIS PROPERTY HE WAS GOING
TO SHOOT THEM.
THAT'S WHEN MALLORY TOOK HIS
ONE-YEAR
OLD SON AND BARRICADED HIMSELF
INSIDE HIS HOME.
AFTER SEVERAL HOURS OF
NEGOTIATING,
MALLORY SURRENDERED TO
POLICE PEACEFULLY AND HIS SON
WAS
CARRIED OUT BY AN OFFICER.
PART OF THE REASON IT ENDED
PEACEFULLY
WAS BECAUSE HE SAYS HE WANTED US
TO BE
THERE WHEN HE LEFT HIS HOME.
HIS FAMILY REACHED OUT TO WKRG
NEWS 5
ABOUT IT AND THAT'S WHEN WE CAME
ON
SCENE.
MALLORY ALSO SPOKE WITH US ON
THE PHONE
WHILE HE WAS STILL BARRICADED IN
HIS
HOME AND THIS IS WHAT HE HAD TO
SAY.
TASHAWN MARTIN:I was scared for
my life. This is
not my first run in with Bay
Minette. Every time I run
into them they are pulling out
their guns threatening
and now they're saying I
threatened them. The only
way I'm coming out is if the
news is out here watching."
SHORTLY AFTER WE SPOKE WITH HIM
ON
THE PHONE OFFICERS ASKED US TO
STEP
AWAY AND WE DID AS TO NOT
INTERFERE WITH THE POLICE
OPERATIONS.
MALLORY IS BEING CHARGED WITH
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN THE THIRD
