Fort Worth police and SWAT teams arrested a man in connection with an hourslong standoff following a shots-fired call early Sunday morning, according to a police statement.
Officers were first dispatched to a residence in the 1200 block of West Bewick Street around 5:50 a.m.
Once there, officers determined the location where shots were coming from, as the suspect was still shooting into the air, the statement said.
When police attempted to contact the suspect, he ran and barricaded himself into the home, officials said. SWAT was called to the scene, and after the suspect refused to communicate with officers, they went inside and took him into custody.
