Davis said Jackson barricaded himself in the home, located on Duke Street, and refused to come out until a diversionary device was deployed.
“Jackson was known to have a history of resisting police,” Davis said. “He was taken into custody around 10:30 p.m. for felony menacing.”
No one was injured in the incident and Davis said Jackson exited the home.
A video that appears to be connected to last night’s incident appeared on YouTube. In the video, titled “Adequate Advocate police are trying to murder me as I write this,” (Editor’s Note: The material in this video may be offensive to some) a rapper named Adequate Advocate, according to the title, films himself rapping for about a minute. The video ends with a flash of light and a loud noise, as he says, “Oh, s**t! You heard the blast!”
A profile of a musician named Adequate Advocate can be found at http://www.reverbnation.com/adequateadvocate.
The bio reads: “Joshua C. Jackson (Adequate Advocate) was born on September 27, 1993 in Greeley, Colorado. The emotional intensity that is expressed through his lyricism and production has immense influence from his traumatic past. Joshua lost both of his biological parents to the underworld of organized crime, his father is in prison and his mother passed away in 2001.”
