Standoff with SWAT ends with arrest in Butler County

A man is in custody after a stand off in Lemon Twp. this afternoon involving the Butler County SWAT team.

A bailiff from Middletown Municipal Court went to serve an eviction notice in the 5300 block of Hamilton-Middletown Road about 3 p.m. when the resident barricaded himself inside, according to Maj. Mike Craft.

The SWAT unit shot a form of tear gas into the home and the person was taken into custody, Craft said.

No one was injured, according to Craft.
