JAMESTOWN, N.D. (AP) .  A fugitive from Kentucky has been arrested in North Dakota.  Authorities say 52-year-old Barry Maiden was apprehended Friday in Jamestown.  Maiden is wanted for terroristic threats toward law enforcement. He also faces a weapons and explosives charge.

Jamestown Police Lt. Justin Blinsky says officers were called to assist U.S. marshals in the arrest at a  Southeast Jamestown residence. Maiden was taken into custody without incident.

Blinsky  reported that “Because of the severity of the outstanding warrants for Maiden, we knew he needed to be arrested quickly.”

Police obtained a no-knock warrant and carried out the action with the assistance of the James Valley Special Operations Unit:  The Stutsman County Sheriff’s Department, The Barnes County Sheriff’s Department and the North Dakota Highway Patrol.

Roosevelt  Elementary  School released children to their parents  as a safety precaution.

Officials  verbally  commanded  Maiden to exit the home.  A female, who purportedly has a relationship with Maiden, exited the home first followed shortly after by Maiden. There was no conflict or struggle.

Maiden is currently being held in the Stutsman County Correctional Center  Jamestown until he can be extradited to Kentucky to face charges.
