COTTONWOOD:   12:24 PM      Houston County 911 dispatched Houston County Sheriff Deputies to Cottonwood to a person with a weapon threatening people.

The Houston County Sheriff Deputy encountered the suspect on Granger Street and Johnson Street in Cottonwood. The person was disorderly and apparently aggressive towards the deputy. The deputy deployed his taser.

Additional Houston County Sheriff Deputies responded. Cottonwood Rescue was called and all they had to do was walk out the door because it was literally in front of Cottonwood Rescue building.

Situation under control.
