A 34-year-old man accused of shooting a high-powered air gun at tree workers in Barnstable was arrested on the morning of New Year’s Eve, according to police.

Kyle Stacey, of Marstons Mills, pleaded not guilty at his Thursday afternoon arraignment at Barnstable District Court. He faces charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, vandalism, and resisting arrest.

Stacey is being held pending a dangerousness hearing, according to the court clerk’s office.

Barnstable police said they received a call reporting a bullet hole in a home’s window in the area of Tanbark Road in Marstons Mills on Tuesday morning. About 30 minutes after clearing the scene, the department received another call reporting a person shooting what appeared to be a rifle at tree workers on Tanbark Road.

When officers returned, they found Stacey, who was identified as a suspect. Stacey immediately went into his house, according to police.

Cape Cod Regional SWAT Team, Barnstable Police K-9 Unit, and Barnstable Police Detective Unit also responded to the scene.

Police said Stacey initially refused to leave the house, but eventually cooperated and was taken into custody. When authorities searched the house, they found “a quantity of .30 caliber projectiles, firearm cleaning tools, and several air guns, including a Vulcan 3 .30 caliber air gun with an attached scope.”
