BEND, Ore. -- A 50-year-old Bend man was arrested Wednesday night after police said he allegedly threatened to kill a resident and fired an AR-style rifle during a dispute. 

Joshua Lee Russell was taken into custody following a standoff at his home in the 2700 block of NE Great Horned Place, a residential area, Bend Police Communications Manager Sheila Miller said.

The incident began around 8:48 p.m. on Tuesday, when a man walking his dog along Rainier Drive reported that his dog began barking at deer. 

As the walker moved away, police said Russell began yelling threats from his nearby home, including threats to shoot and kill both the man and his dog.

"Officers responded to the home and set up a perimeter, then called Russell out of the home," Miller said in a news release. 

She said Russell was detained without incident and taken to the Deschutes County Jail on suspicion of menacing, second-degree disorderly conduct and unlawful use of a weapon.

After the arrest, detectives executed a search warrant at the home. Miller said investigators found eight spent rounds in a trash can, an AR-style rifle and evidence that Russell had fired the weapon into the grass in his yard.

The neighborhood saw a significant police presence for about four hours during the investigation, according to Miller. That response included members of the Central Oregon Emergency Response Team, armored vehicles and drones.
