LOUISVILLE, Colo. — A barricaded person was taken into custody after an hours-long police standoff at a Louisville apartment complex Tuesday.

The Louisville Police Department said the incident began around 2:32 p.m. when officers were searching for a person who was involved in a domestic incident earlier in the day. The person had barricaded themselves inside their residence at the Kestrel Apartments and refused to come out.

A shelter-in-place was issued for residents in the area northwest of Courtesy Road and South Boulder Road out of an abundance of caution.

At 7:45 p.m., Louisville PD announced that the suspect was taken into custody and the situation was "resolved peacefully." The shelter-in-place was also lifted.
