Tense stand-off with Adair Sheriffs Office results in arrest

From the Office of Adair County Sheriff Josh Brockman

On 01-19-20 at 09:13amCT Sheriffs Deputy Chandler Staten responded to 901 Jones Chapel Rd to attempt to serve an outstanding warrant on Vincent J Bach, 33, for Adair District Court for Failure to Appear as well as two additional warrants of arrest from Russell County District Court. Deputy Staten went up onto the porch and knocked on the door as he announced himself. As the door came open a pistol, later identified as a Glock 45 caliber, was stuck out the door and into the face of Deputy Staten.

Deputy Staten while at gun point was able to de-escalate the subject into lowering weapon down and was able to draw his service weapon at the point and take him into custody.



During the engagement Deputy Staten was able to make radio contact with Columbia -Adair County 911 dispatch and request assistance. Immediately Columbia City Police and Trooper Clint Bale who overheard the call was enroute. Sheriff Brockman who overheard radio traffic and was called by dispatch as well as Deputy Josh Durbin responded to the scene as well.

Bach was arrested on the warrants by Deputy Staten and lodged in the Adair County Regional Jail.

Trooper Clint Bale Will by filing additional charges related to the incident and the firearm.

On a personel note, I want to thank the Columbia Police Department and the State Police for their quick response this situation which could have turned out very very bad. These deputies are tasked with serving warrants most of the time by themselves and most of the time a good distance out in the county. Training teaches us that we serve warrants with a minimum of two deputies or officers, etc. Unfortunately training doesn't always meet reality when you only have one person available per shift 80 percent of time.

These guys are out here by themselves and, honestly, most of the time don't even have radio contact in the rural parts because of the lack of repeaters spread through county. These guys walk a thin line everyday they come to work.
