Domestic Violence Suspect Arrested Following Standoff at Mountain View Apartments – ABQ RAW
Albuquerque –
On January 4, 2025 at around 8:45 PM, law enforcement officers from the Albuquerque Police Department were dispatched to an apartment at 1333 Columbia Dr SE, Mountain View Apartments, in response to a domestic violence incident. Reports indicated that a male suspect, Marlon Brown, 45, had allegedly threatened to kill a female victim and her son. Brown was reportedly armed with two knives and refused to leave the residence.
Upon arrival, law enforcement personnel spoke with the victim, who stated she was engaged to Brown. She stated that Brown and her son had ongoing conflicts, and Brown did not want her son staying in the shared apartment. Earlier in the day, Brown had purportedly been released from the hospital and returned to the apartment, but the victim initially resisted allowing him inside. After he entered, she asked him to leave, but he refused.
The victim explained to APD officers that Brown locked himself in the master bedroom and appeared to believe she was accompanied by someone else. When Brown allowed her to partially enter the room, she observed him holding a hunting knife with a silver blade approximately 8-10 inches long and a handle wrapped in electrical tape. She attempted to calm Brown, but he pointed the knife at her and swung it in her direction. Fearing for her safety, the victim left the apartment and contacted law enforcement from her car outside.
Officers at the scene attempted to talk with and negotiate with Brown, but he barricaded himself in the apartment and did not respond to commands or public announcements. According to the criminal complaint, efforts by law enforcement to reach Brown by phone were also unsuccessful. At the time of this situation, APD contacted neighbors living in the neighboring apartment complexes, asking them to shelter in place. Following an investigation, probable cause was established to charge Brown with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against a household member.
A neighbor living near the police activity reached out this morning and sent videos; they stated “there was a police standoff for about 4hours.” As this situation was going on, APD blocked off all of Santa Clara between Yale and Columbia and Kathryn between Yale and Columbia.
Brown was taken into custody and booked into MDC on January 5, 2025, at 4:57 AM.
Defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
