(Updated) A stand-off in Crawford County that began early Tuesday morning, ended without anyone being hurt. Authorities say at approximately 7 a-m, the Iowa State Patrol Area B Tactical Team assisted the Division of Narcotic Enforcement (DNE) and Crawford County Sheriff’s Office in serving the warrant at 315 Eagle Street.

An unidentified man barricaded himself inside the home and refused to surrender to authorities. After several hours of trying to convince the man to come out, law enforcement used chemical munitions to resolve the situation. The suspect was taken into custody at approximately 11:30-a.m. .
