A gun-wielding Upper Township man accused of holding two family members hostage with a gun last month was indicted late last week by a Lawrence County grand jury.

Ronnie Rowe, 54, of 96 Private Drive 2562, Ironton, was indicted on two counts of felonious assault, each with a firearm specification, two counts of kidnapping, each with a firearm specification and one count each of improperly discharging a firearm into a habitation, disrupting a public service and resisting arrest.

On Oct. 5, authorities were called to a residence in Sisler Hollow, off Lawrence Street Road in response reports of a man with a gun holding people hostage. The man had reportedly fired the gun several times and was making threats to shoot people and shoot officers who came to the scene.

The situation ended when Rowe reportedly walked to the end of the road and was tackled by Lawrence County Sheriff’s Deputy Jamie Pruitt.
