A Watauga man faces a felony charge after police say he broke into a county residence late Thursday night and the home owner held him at gun point until officers arrived.

Deputies of the Carter County Sheriff’s Office arrested Gordon Ivin Good III, 30, of 206 Watauga Road, and charged him with aggravated burglary and vandalism. Officers also served him with an outstanding warrant charging him with failure to appear.

According to court documents, deputies responded to a home on Laurels Road after a 911 caller reported a burglary in progress at the residence. While officers were en route, 911 dispatchers informed officers the suspect had gotten into the home and the resident was holding him at gun point to await officers.

CCSO Deputy Dustin Mullins said when he and Deputy Jason Mosier arrived at the home they met Sherry Freeman at the front door and were directed inside.

“We entered the residence and inside the kitchen Randy Freeman had the suspect at gun point and the suspect was in the prone position on the floor,” Mullins said.

Officers then placed the suspect, who was later identified as Good, into handcuffs.

“While on the scene Randy stated that he and his wife, Sherry, were woke up by a loud noise,” Mullins said. “Randy stated that he saw the male subject knocking on his rear window. The subject began screaming for help and stating someone was trying to murder him.”

Randy Freeman said he called 911. He said Good then began hitting the exterior door that leads into the kitchen and soon broke the window and was able to get inside the home. Randy Freeman told the officers he held Good at gun point and ordered him to get on the ground, which he said Good did.

“While speaking with Gordon he stated that he was under the influence of methamphetamine,” Mullins said. “He also stated that he forced entry into the residence because there was someone trying to rob and murder him.”

Mullins said officers checked the area around the home but could not find any evidence that someone else has been outside.

“Mr. Good appeared to be hallucinating and was making random statements,” Mullins said.

Good appeared in Carter County General Sessions Court on Friday and Judge Keith Bowers Jr. scheduled him to return to court on Aug. 4.
