An Akron man who a woman says was following her home from an early morning gym appointment got a surprise he wasn't expecting - the woman's husband, a police officer.

Police say the 29 year-old woman noticed a car following her, the man inside yelling at her as he pulled his car aside her.

When she got to her home off South Arlington Street, she honked her horn and called her husband, an off-duty police officer.

He ordered the man to the ground at gunpoint, and brought the man down - who struggled with him when the off-duty officer was trying to put on handcuffs. He eventually got help from a neighbor to get the handcuffs on.

38 year-old Andrew Hayes of North Canton was charged with menacing, criminal trespassing and resisting arrest.

He was booked into the Summit County Jail.
