Police: Man Threatens Pregnant Girlfriend, Mother & Neighbor

Posted: Updated:

Wichita Falls police arrested a 19 year old accused of threatening several people.

Police went to the 4500 block of Barnett Road, Saturday, August 4th. Police said they saw Nathan Wells with a revolver in his hand. Officers said Wells walked toward police, while they held him at gunpoint. He eventually dropped the gun and was taken into custody.

His pregnant girlfriend told police Wells threatened her with a knife and put her in a choke hold. The girlfriend told officers Wells said "I will kill you before you get my kid."

She said his mother tried to get the knife away and the girlfriend got loose and jump off the second story balcony to get away. Police said the mother was stabbed in the right biceps during the fight.

They then said Wells went looking for his girlfriend and that's when a neighbor said he heard gunshots. The neighbor said Wells started kicking his sliding-glass door and pointed the gun at him, saying, "I will kill you if you don't let me in."

Wells was charged with two counts of Aggravated Assault/Family Violence and one count of Aggravated Assault.
