At around 9:00pm Friday, Arlington Police received a 911 call from an individual in another city who indicated several family members were inside a home in the 900 block of Salida Drive and were not being allowed to leave by a known suspect who was possibly armed.
Officers responded to that address and set up perimeter around the home. They were able to get in contact with one of the family members inside who told officers they had locked themselves in a room to get away from the suspect.
Given the info APD had at the time that this was possibly a hostage situation, the APD SWAT team responded to the scene and eventually made entry into the house. They got all of the family members (two adults and three children) out safely. None of them were harmed…
