A man holds family hostage after getting mad at a Wii game

On Sunday, a 46 year old New Britain man named Edgar Montalvo, was arrested for holding his own family hostage and then threatening to burn the house down. When Edgar asked his son to deal with the families dogs, he became very angry because his son didn't pause the Nintendo Wii game fast enough for Edgar. Edgar also proceeded to smash the Wii system and then throw it at the front door. After destroying the system, he then proceeded to also use a club-type weapon to hold the family members inside the house. Edgar is charged with disorderly conduct, second-degree criminal mischief, second-degree threatening, third-degree assault, two counts of second-degree unlawful restraint and risk of injury to a minor.
