A 39-year-old man with multiple warrants was arrested Tuesday in Jefferson City after a roughly half-hour standoff, a Wednesday press release from the Jefferson City Police Department says.
The release says an officer saw the man at 12:07 p.m. in the 200 block of Lafayette Street and the man ran away to a building. Police used a PA to tell the man to get out of the building, but he did not respond, the release says.
At 12:35 p.m., a SWAT team arrived, commands were made again by police and the man walked out of the building, the release says.
The man’s identity was not released by authorities on Wednesday.
