A Raymond woman was arrested early Monday morning following a standoff with police at her home.
Erika Frank, 54, had allegedly threatened her boyfriend with a firearm Sunday night in the Wogan Road home where they both reside, according to the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office.
After police arrived at the scene, Frank refused to leave the home, where she had access to multiple firearms, the sheriff’s office said Monday.
She was taken into custody about seven hours after police first arrived.
Frank is being held without bail. She faces two domestic violence charges as well as the charge of creating a police standoff.
