When officers arrived, they learned a handgun was also in the bedroom. Three adults and a child were evacuated from the apartment.
The man is not a resident, but is dating a tenant, according to police. He reportedly arrived at the apartment earlier and was drinking alcohol while he had a gun.
When he stepped outside, his girlfriend locked him out. The man kicked in the door and threatened to assault his girlfriend, police said.
