Headline: Five-hour standoff at Shoreview town house ends with man's arrest


A Shoreview man was arrested by the Ramsey County SWAT team after a 5 1/2 hour standoff at his home on Chatworth Street North. Police were called to the home after neighbors reported a couple fighting outside the home early Monday morning.

When police arrived at the home they were unable to reach the man by cell phone or landline but his spouse reported that he was inside the house threatening to kill himself or anyone who tried to take him out.

The SWAT team were eventually able to arrest the man after using tear gas to storm the house.
