A man holed up Sunday night in a home on East Chrisman Road in Blairstown Township was taken into custody about 4 a.m. Monday when tactical teams went in, township police report.

The man, who wasn't named due to the domestic nature of the charges of simple assault (two counts) and terroristic threats, was "located upstairs and quickly arrested," Capt. Scott Johnsen said.

A mother and her son were assaulted by the man before police were called about 9 p.m., according to the department's Facebook post. The man at that point was locked in an upstairs room along with guns, police said.

The woman and child, who weren't badly hurt, followed police directions to get out of the house, Johnsen said.

"The male also made statements that he would kill the family, himself and law enforcement," police said.

Officers, along with New Jersey State Police, set up a perimeter and local police requested the Warren County Tactical Response Team. Hunterdon County's SWAT as well as the Warren County Prosecutor's Office also responded, police said. The tactical personnel were not able to make contact with the man before the breach, police said.

The man was housed in Warren County Jail on charges from the incident but more counts were expected, Johnsen said.
