SCOTTSBLUFF - Officers were dispatched to a reported male threatening to break out windows with a wrench.

When officers arrived on scene they observed a male standing next to a vehicle with a large wrench in his hand.

The man was identified was 40-year-old Scott Yager.

Court documents stated that when officers told Yager to put the wrench down he did not comply.

When officers told him to put the wrench down multiple times they threatened to tase him, which lead to Yager putting it on the ground.

Officers spoke with Yagers ex fiancé about the call they had received.

She said that they were arguing inside of the home.

She reported to the police that Yager cornered her in the bedroom and grabbed her so she wouldn’t leave.

He was charged with Disorderly Conduct and 3rd Degree Domestic Assault.
