Gibson County Sheriff Deputies, Indiana State Police, and the U.S. Marshals Task Force responded to 30-year-old Aaron Riggs’s residence with an arrest warrant.

Riggs had an active warrant out of Daviess County for Level 4 Felony Child Molesting.

Riggs already barricaded himself in the secondary story of his residence by the time officers arrived.
