WASHINGTON - D.C. police responded to a home in southeast Washington Monday where they say a man barricaded himself inside.
Officers were called to the 2800 block of Q Street just after 8 a.m.
Officials believe the situation is domestic in nature. The victim told officers that they had been struck by a rock while arguing with the suspect.
As officers attempted to contact the suspect – identified by the detectives as 51-year-old Aaron Johnson – he allegedly started hurling threats at the officers and refused to open the door.
With the help of D.C. Police's Emergency Response Team, officers were able to place Johnson under arrest.
A D.C. Fire and EMS arson investigator said that Johnson tried to start a fire with a heat source inside the house.
The victim was taken to a local hospital with what officials described as "non-life-threatening injuries."
Several roads were closed in the 2700 - 2800 block of Q Street SE, 1500 - 1600 block of 28th Place SE, and in the 1600 block of 29th Street, SE.
Johnson is now facing assault with a dangerous weapon, threats and malicious burning charges.
