The sheriff’s office said the victim was in the house with the suspect and pointed a firearm at the victim’s head and took money from them. The victim was able to leave the property and call 911.
Deputies found the suspect still inside the house and said to be armed with a handgun and an AR-15 rifle, and was refusing to leave the residence.
The Montgomery County Regional SWAT was requested along with the Montgomery County Regional Hostage Negotiations to the scene.
Negotiators communicated with the suspect for several hours until he finally surrendered to SWAT and was taken into custody without incident, according to the sheriff’s office.
The suspect’s brother, who was also on scene, was arrested for misconduct at an emergency scene, resisting arrest and obstructing official business.
