Thursday night, Crossville police were dispatched to an apartment on Park Place for a report of a man threatening to kill not only the occupant of the apartment, but any officer who arrived on the scene.

Officers saw 46-year-old Jeremy Wade Hale outside a neighbor’s apartment; the arrest report states he was “screaming and cursing at the people inside the residence.” Hale was said to have made multiple threatening statements toward the residents and was seen engaging in “violent threatening behavior” toward the complainant.

Hale was arrested for disorderly conduct and taken to jail without incident.
