An arrest warrant has been issued after SWAT responded to a home for a domestic situation in Washington County.

Police were first called to the home in the 600 block of Carriage Hill in Peters Township after the woman living there said her boyfriend began dragging her and choking her after he accused of her of texting other men.

She was able to escape from the home and run to a neighbor’s house where she called 911.

Police said a woman had minor injuries and thought her husband was still inside the home with guns. Police tried to communicate with the man, but he was not inside.

There is now a warrant out for Brandon Osborne’s arrest. He is facing assault and strangulation charges.

“We have been in touch with him and since that time we located him and implored him to come in and turn himself him so we can get his side of the story,” said Peters Township Police Chief Douglas Grimes.

Neighbors were told to stay inside during the SWAT situation, which has since been cleared. West McMurray Road was shut down at the time, causing traffic backups.
