FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. - A Bunnell woman was taken down by deputies after she allegedly assaulted a man before then threatening both him and law enforcement officers verbally and with knives.

What happened?

What we know:

On June 4, dispatchers said they received a call from a man who said he was inside his Bunnell camper home and being threatened by 58-year-old Camille Campbell.

While on the phone with 911, the man told authorities there was a firearm inside the home. The man said Campbell continued making threats while the man was on the phone, and the operators told him to exit the camper and secure the firearm, which he did.

According to the man, Campbell had been drinking earlier in the afternoon before then becoming aggressive. The man said Campbell struck a table, threw an ashtray and slapped him on the head. As the man attempted to leave the camper, he said Campbell poked him with a broom and made additional threats.

Deputies with the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) then responded to the domestic disturbance call.

When officials arrived at the scene, they said they saw Campbell making verbal threats towards both the man and law enforcement while holding two knives inside the doorway of a camper. The woman then barricaded herself inside the home.

Deputies say they issued multiple commands for Campbell to exit the camper, but she refused for more than an hour. 

In order to safely deescalate the situation after the woman continued the threats and refused to exit the home, deputies say they used a non-lethal method to take her into custody. 

Campbell was arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, domestic battery and obstruction without violence. She was then taken to a hospital for medical evaluation. 

What's next:

Upon release, deputies say Campbell will be taken to the Sheriff Pery Hall Inmate Detention Facility where she will be held without bond until her first appearance.

‘Real-life dangers’

"This situation highlights the real-life dangers our deputies face every day, especially in domestic violence cases," Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly said. "Our deputies responded quickly and professionally to a very dangerous situation involving an armed individual refusing to comply. Thanks to their training and de-escalation tactics, this situation was safely resolved."
