Carrollton police have located a man they say threatened officers and another man he believed had an affair with his wife.

An arrest warrant was issued for 53-year-old Ola B. Ware, who is charged with one count of making terroristic threats, Carrollton police spokeswoman Sgt. Meredith Browning said in an email. In a social media post Tuesday afternoon, police announced that Ware had been found.

While on the phone with one of Ware’s family members Saturday evening, officers could hear Ware threatening the life of the man he suspected of the affair, Browning said. She added that Ware also threatened the police.

Multiple family members confirmed the threats to police after the incident and said Ware left the scene with a gun.
