Manchester police said they responded to a call around 11:40 a.m. Sunday at an address on Central Street. The caller told police they heard a male and a female yelling and threats being made.

The arriving officers spoke with a woman who said she had gotten into an argument with a man she knew, later identified as Bemis. As the argument escalated, she said the man broke a mirror and then pointed a gun at her while she sat on the bed with her 3-year-old child.

Bemis left the residence before police arrived but returned shortly after and was taken into custody without further incident.
