[LNP | LancasterOnline] Police charge gunman in Columbia standoff last week



The Columbia man who barricaded himself in a home last week, resulting in an hours long standoff, said he shot toward a police dog to scare it and told police he had guns and ammunition when he refused to come out, according to police.

Police charged Charles Nathan Harris, 40, on Tuesday with two counts of aggravated assault, along with charges related to shooting at the police dog, endangering other people and two firearms violations, according to charging documents.

Around 10:30 a.m. Friday, Columbia Borough police and officers with the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office went to 325 Cherry St. to serve an arrest warrant for Harris for a gun law violation. Online court records show Harris was charged last January with illegal possession of a gun.

Police said in charging documents Harris was with a woman in the house, and though she came out, Harris refused.

Officers then sent a sheriff's K-9, Ragnar, into the first floor, and Harris began shooting at it, police said. Ragnar's handler called him outside, and Harris barricaded himself inside. Ragnar was not hit.
