WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. —The man who barricaded himself inside a Cat Rock Lane home for 18 hours Sunday appeared in court Tuesday, facing charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and false imprisonment.
Jupiter police said Cyrus Ahyoung, 50, first imprisoned his girlfriend, her daughter, and his own daughter for several hours Saturday night, threatening to kill them all,and hitting them with his hand and pistols. The girlfriend’s daughter said Ahyoung said they were all disrespecting him, and he didn’t know why so many bad things were happening to him.
The girlfriend told police she finally calmed him down, and she and the girls escaped the next morning, when she drove to the police station.
Police said the girlfriend advised them he had a gun safe full of guns and ammunition and was an expert marksman.
Chief Frank Kitzerow said Ahyoung refused to exit the home and continued making threats. Kitzerow said he had 40 officers and SWAT team members on scene -– over a third of his entire force.
