Detroit Lakes, MN (KDLM) – New details are emerging about a Red River Valley SWAT team arrest in Hawley last Wednesday that prompted a soft lockdown at area schools.
On Nov. 1, Moorhead Police say 39-year-old Brandon Loock of Hawley was taken into custody without incident after he reportedly tried to enter a home in the 1600 block of 2nd Avenue South on Halloween.
A door cam video showed Loock was holding a large knife while ringing the doorbell and police said Loock then showed a handgun when people in the home would not let him in.
Loock and the victim are known to each other and he is currently being held at the Clay County Jail for felony assault with a weapon and restraining order violations.
