ST. LOUIS (KMOX) — A five-hour standoff with St. Louis police has come to an end.
Major Eric Larson said when police went to the home, the man refused to come out. Two other individuals, a man and a woman, were in the home as well.

The suspect was armed with an assault rifle and handgun, and early on he fired shots in the home. Shots were also fired at SWAT vehicles at some point. The vehicles were hit, though no one was injured.
Media was given limited information during the five hours as to not tip off the suspect, whose identification information was not released. The suspect is now behind bars.
