The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office reports an incident took place Saturday morning in Shenandoah, involving a barricaded subject. The Fremont County K9 Unit was called at around 9:20-a.m. to assist the Shenandoah Police Department and Page County Sheriff’s Office with a barricaded subject at an address in Shenandoah.

Deputies were advised that Shenandoah Police were attempting to arrest 37-year old Jonathan Lynn Gray, of Shenandoah, on a Page County warrant. Gray ran into his home and barricaded the door. Deputies made several attempts to get the man to exit the home peacefully, but he refused.

Once the K9 “Roby” was deployed inside the residence, Gray began throwing glass and metal objects at deputies and the K9, hitting the K9. Gray continued to resist the Police K9 and law enforcement resulting in injury to a law enforcement officer.
