At approximately 2:00 a.m. on Sunday Oct. 13, Bradley County Sheriff’s Office
deputies responded to a 911 call regarding a domestic disturbance near Laguna Drive in Charleston.

The suspect, Lance Leroy MacTaggart was involved in a domestic dispute which had lasted through the night.
The victim was seeking medical treatment when deputies produced an arrest warrant.

Three deputies entered the building and called out MacTaggart’s name, which he responded to from a bedroom, stating that he was armed with a gun. MacTaggart was visible to deputies and was uncooperative.

One of the deputies deployed a taser in an unsuccessful attempt to subdue MacTaggart.
