FREETOWN — A Freetown man has been charged with trafficking more than 100 grams of crack cocaine and also faces assault and attempted murder charges, according to police.

Robert W. Reynolds Jr., 33, of Katlyn Drive, was charged Saturday with trafficking more than 100 grams of crack cocaine, assault by means of a dangerous weapon, attempted murder, and assault and battery. Police alleged Reynolds was armed with a Samurai sword and was assaulting his wife.

Freetown police Chief Carlton Abbott said officers were dispatched to Reynold's home on Katlyn Drive around 10:35 a.m. Saturday, after receiving a 911 call about a domestic dispute.

According to police, Patrolman Christopher Medeiros entered the home shortly after police received a second 911 call reporting that Reynolds had armed himself with a Samurai sword and was attacking his wife.

Reynolds charged Medeiros, who used a Taser to subdue Reynolds. Investigation revealed that Reynolds had also attempted to strangle his wife. The wife declined medical attention, police said.

Also at the home, Freetown police Sgt. Elton Ashley found crack cocaine. He kept the scene clear until Detective Shane Kelley obtained a search warrant. Upon obtaining the warrant, police searched the home and seized 139 grams of cocaine that was packaged in several bags. Officers also seized packaging materials and a cutting agent, as well as $1,400 in cash and scales from a safe.

A district court clerk magistrate set bail for Reynolds at $50,000 cash. Reynolds is scheduled to appear in district court on Monday.
