The arrest reported stated, at 3:21 am, Levy County Dispatch received a report that Eskridge was armed with a 22-caliber rifle he'd recently fired, and he'd allegedly made the comment, that if law enforcement arrived at the residence, he'd pick up the firearm so law enforcement officers would shoot him. Deputies arrived to find Eskridge outside the residence drinking beer. He told deputies he'd heard a shot fired about an hour previously, and admitted he'd been gifted with the firearm by a relative. He told deputies he'd been fooling around with the comments. Deputies learned that an injunction had been filed against Eskridge at the Washington Township Police Department in New Jersey, which is still in effect, so Eskridge is not allowed to be in possession of a firearm.
