(Spencer)– A Spencer woman was arrested Saturday after allegedly threatening police officers with a sword.
Spencer police say they were called around 12:02 am Saturday after getting a report of a disturbance in the 800 block of East 7th Street. A caller stated there was an unknown woman banging on her door. Officers arrived and encountered 34-year-old Tristan Buhr of Spencer standing on the front porch armed with pepper spray and a sword. According to police, Buhr aggressively approached them swinging the sword and refusing commands. Officers then deployed a taser and Buhr was taken into custody.
