Vineyard Police arrest armed man after two-hour stand off in Edgartown
Special report by Ezra Sherman of VineyardToday.com
EDGARTOWN - Martha's Vineyard's Tactical Response Team diffused a potentially deadly situation in Edgartown Thursday. There were no reports of any injuries to either officers or the individual taken into custody, which is exactly why the team was formed in the first place, to help arrest idiots like this guy.
Just after 12 p.m. yesterday afternoon, Edgartown Police responded to the Whalers Walk development for a report of a suspicious male with a weapon. When cops peaked in the windows they observed "a male with a gun inside the residence." In case the officers hadn't seen the gun, the suspect informed them, "I have a gun, go ahead and shoot me." Police declined to shoot the suspect and instead called the TRT team.
During the two hour standoff, the suspect, 36-year-old Arthur Smith, repeatedly brandished his weapon at police. The weapon appeared, according to the police report, to be a long-barreled black pistol. Smith was eventually taken into custody and charged with Assault With a Dangerous Weapon and Disorderly Conduct.
