Police say once inside the home, Elmquist allegedly pushed one of the occupants down the stairs, before he left the home and went across the street. There, he sat on a retaining wall and hollered what the victims said was “jibberish.” Elmquist got up and began walking north from the residence and when Red Oak Police approached, took off running.

Following a short foot pursuit, Elmquist was taken into custody without further incident and brought to the Montgomery County Jail.
