MD: Neighbor uses Gun to Detain Suspect for Police

The occupant then opened a second-floor window and looked outside to investigate, police said. At that point, he saw Cline, who allegedly said, “Come out here; I want to kill you” after noticing the occupant peeping out the window, police added.

Moments later, the occupant grabbed a baseball bat for protection and went outside after he saw his neighbor walking toward his targeted home, court records show. The occupant heard his neighbor warn the suspect, “Don’t move — I have a gun,” police reported.

The neighbor told investigators that he instructed his wife to call 911, after he grabbed his gun, and then headed toward the targeted home to confront the suspect, police said. As officers with the Elkton Police Department rushed to the scene, a dispatcher reported that the suspect was being “detained by a neighbor of the victim at gunpoint,” police added.

Court records indicate that, according to his account, the neighbor told the suspect, “I have gun, lay down.”
