The Madison County Sheriff’s Department recently responded to a call in regards to a domestic disturbance. The caller told 911 that his son had threatened him with a gun.

When the officer arrived at the residence, they reportedly detected a strong odor of marijuana emanating from the basement where the suspect, later identified as Brandon K. Marshall, resided. Authorities detained Marshall, and allegedly located plastic baggies that contained suspected marijuana, rolling papers, and a grinder.

According to the citation, Marshall’s father told the officer that his son had pointed a handgun at him and threatened to kill him, but stated that he was able to take the weapon and unload it. Marshall’s father also advised the officer that his son was a convicted felon, a statement later confirmed by a criminal history check.

Marshall was later taken to the Madison County Detention Center where he was charged with 1st Degree Wanton Endangerment, Possession of a Handgun by a Convicted Felon, Possession of Marijuana, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
