CHURCH HILL — Hawkins County Deputy Jason Montgomery disarmed a man at gunpoint who had allegedly been terrorizing his ex-wife and four small children with a 20-gauge shotgun Thursday. Bruce William Gunter, 29, 148 Ford Lane, Church Hill, was arraigned Monday in Hawkins County Sessions Court on one count of aggravated domestic assault, a Class C felony punishable by 3-6 years. The charge stems from Gunter’s arrest the evening of May 18 at his ex-wife Kristy Fishburne’s residence on Fay Street in an unincorporated area of Hawkins County just north of Allandale. Around 7 p.m., Montgomery responded to a domestic disturbance at the home. Montgomery entered the residence and found broken glass and items tossed around the living room and heard screams coming from the kitchen. “I continued toward the screaming in the kitchen portion of the residence and observed a male later identified as Bruce Gunter screaming in the kitchen with a 20-gauge shotgun in his right hand,” Montgomery stated in his report.
