PORT ANGELES – A Port Angeles man was jailed on burglary and assault charges after police say he kicked in a woman’s door yesterday.
Just before four yesterday afternoon, cops were called to the 200 block of west 3rd Street. That’s where a woman called 9-1-1 reporting a man had kicked in the door. The dispatcher could hear a disturbance in the background.
Police arrived and found 37-year-old Timothy Owens in a physical tussle with another man. Police threated to use a TASER on Owens if he didn’t disengage. Owens complied. Officers noticed he was also carrying a handgun.
