Four hour standoff in Edina ends with arrest of motorist

Cover Image

Highway 100 in Edina was closed in both directions for an apparent standoff for hours Saturday afternoon before being opened back up around 2 p.m.

SWAT teams on the scene between Highway 62 and Excelsior Blvd. negotiated with the driver, who stayed inside a pick-up truck and was uncooperative with law enforcement.


He finally surrendered and was arrested after paradmedics checked him for injuries.

Police say it started when officers responded to a welfare check for a man at Breseden Park after 9:30 this morning. The man slammed into a squad car and fled when officers approached.

A chase followed and concluded with a crash.

Police say no one was hurt in the incident.
