SWAT Mobilized for Soddy Daisy Incident

February 22, 2026 By Contributed Article Leave a Comment

 

On Friday, Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to multiple 911 calls regarding a disorder involving a weapon at a Soddy Daisy residence.

Once deputies arrived, they found the ex-partner and stepchildren of Quinton Finnell, who informed deputies that Finnell had broken into their home and threatened them with an AR-style rifle before leaving the scene.

On Saturday, due to the nature of the situation, the HCSO SWAT team responded to a residence in the 11700 block of Guth Road in Soddy Daisy where Finnell was taken into custody. Finnell is a convicted felon, including several convictions for assaulting law enforcement.

Finnell faces the following charges: Three counts of Aggravated Assault, three counts of Reckless Endangerment, and two counts of Possessing a Firearm with Intent to go Armed.

Additional charges may be added pending the outcome of the investigation. This information is preliminary and subject to change.
