Police and SWAT team members safely resolved an incident in South St. Paul on Sunday night.

At around 3:30 p.m., officers responded to an apartment building in the 200 block of Marie Avenue on report of a disturbance with someone threatening another person with a firearm.

When police arrived, they found a man in the hallway of the building with a rifle who wouldn’t listen to commands and ran into an apartment.

Officials say that at this point, officers with the Inver Grove Heights, Mendota Heights and West St. Paul police departments responded to assist in evacuating nearby apartments.

Authorities tried to negotiate with the man for about two hours before requesting help from South Metro SWAT.

At about 10 p.m., members of the SWAT team used a chemical irritant in the apartment and took the suspect into custody.

The suspect, a 62-year-old man from South St. Paul, was treated for injuries during his arrest and brought to the Dakota County Jail.

An investigation is being conducted by the South St. Paul Police Department and more information will be released as it becomes available.
