Suspect in custody after standoff at Montrose apartment complex, sheriff says

Authorities say a suspect is in custody after an hourslong standoff on Thursday morning at an apartment complex in Montrose, Minnesota.

The Wright County Sheriff's Office says deputies executed a search warrant at about 5:30 a.m. at Mindy Lane Apartments, located just a couple of blocks north of the Montrose Community Center.

The suspect "barricaded themselves inside and a gunshot was reportedly fired from inside of the apartment," the sheriff's office says, leading to the evacuation of the complex's residents. 

Just after 10:40 a.m., the suspect was arrested, the sheriff's office said, and there is no further danger to the public. No injuries were reported.
