When they first approached the apartment, they could hear her screaming and telling them to get the f*** out of there, according to court documents.
Ecklund began destroying items inside the apartment as the standoff continued through Saturday afternoon, reported New York Daily News.
She hurled some of Martin's possessions out of a window into the parking lot below.
After several hours, authorities were able to enter and arrest the woman.
She has been charged with six felonies, including criminal mischief, criminal threatening and reckless conduct, and three misdemeanor counts of domestic violence.
Police also brought her to the hospital for evaluation. She pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor offenses, but in the time before her release or trial police have agreed that Eckland must complete a mental health treatment program.
She has been placed on a $25,000 cash bail, which could be converted to credit if accepted into a 28-day program (or one similar to) Hampstead Hospital for inpatient health and substance abuse treatment, reported NH1.
The bail would be given back as cash once she was either discharged or completed the program.
