The man that walked into the Breckinridge County Judicial Center around 9:30 am Tuesday (2/20) and sprayed a substance on some of the sheriff’s staff has been identified.
According to authorities, 31-year-old Christopher Raymond Pascoe, of Irvington, sprayed a deputy and fled the building into an alley, where he was detained by police, who he also sprayed with the substance during a brief foot pursuit. He was detained and taken to Breckinridge Memorial Hospital by Breck Central EMS for evaluation and was arrested.
Pascoe was lodged in the Breckinridge County Detention Center Tuesday late Tuesday night on charges of menacing, criminal use of noxious substance, disarming a peace officer, kidnapping, disorderly conduct, terroristic threatening, wanton endangerment, fleeing or evading police and resisting arrest.
Three officers were taken to Breckinridge Memorial Hospital for treatment of non life threatening injuries. The Fort Knox Hazmat Team was requested to test the substance which was determined to be a hot sauce mixture.
Main Street and some surrounding areas were closed most of the day on Tuesday along with the Breckinridge County Judicial Center until the substance was determined.
