22-year-old Caleb Compton had an altercation with his estranged wife and son’s mother, Ivy Compton, at her house on June 14th. Officers were advised that they share custody of their 1-year-old son. Per their parenting plan, Caleb met her at her home to pick him up and keep him for a week. Usually, Ivy’s brother goes with her to ensure there would be no issues, however, he could not make it, so she was alone. When Ivy arrived home and started getting their son out of her car, Caleb pulled up his shirt, revealing a handgun tucked in his waistband. Caleb stated, “Where is your brother now? Not so tough without your brother here,” which frightened Ivy, so she took a step back. She added that Caleb kept showing the firearm during their interaction. Officers then obtained a warrant for his arrest. Caleb Compton was later taken into custody for aggravated assault on June 17th.
