LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Las Vegas Metro police were dispatched on Friday morning to the central Las Vegas valley to locate a wanted suspect.
Police said the suspect was armed and barricaded in an apartment in the 1100 block of Stewart Avenue.
SWAT and crisis negotiators responded to the scene and attempted to persuade the suspect to surrender peacefully.
Police shut the area down, and the public was advised to avoid the area between North 11th Street and Maryland Parkway.
The suspect has since been taken into custody without incident.
