Hours-Long Standoff Ends Between Waseca Police And Armed Man

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Waseca police say a standoff with an armed man inside of a residence ended after about five-and-a-half hours.

Police were first called to a report of a man with a gun on the 500 block of 7th Avenue Southeast at about 6:25 p.m.

Other people in the house managed to get out safely, and just before midnight, the man finally gave himself up to police.

Waseca police were assisted by several agencies, including the Le Sueur County SWAT team. Police will release more information on the situation Tuesday morning.
