Officers were called Thursday morning to a home on River Road, where they received multiple reports of someone firing a gun and trying to enter the residence.

Police arrived to find the suspect fleeing on a snowmobile — which later broke down — forcing the man to run away on foot. Officers eventually tracked him down and made an arrest.
