According to Lt. Brad Misner, a man kicked in the door of his girlfriend’s Ada street home just before noon and threatened her with a handgun.

She called police, who arrived on the scene roughly five minutes later.  She made it out safely, and the man was nowhere to be found after a SWAT team was called in to search the home.

The suspect is described by police as a black male who is 5 feet 11 inches and in his late 20s or early 30s.  His name was not released, and no other description was given.

Anyone with information on this incident should contact Kalamazoo Public Safety at 269-337-8120.
