One man is behind bars after a 45-minute standoff with Boise Police on Tuesday.
According to police, officers were responding to a call related to a suspicious vehicle when the adult male suspect reportedly ran from officers and hid in a backyard shed on the 2200 block of Hill Road.
Officers say they could see the suspect was armed with a gun, so a CodeRED alert was sent asking nearby residents to shelter in place, while a Crisis Negotiation Team negotiator along with a K9 officer and a drone were called to the scene.
After about 45 minutes, the suspect came out and was taken into custody without incident.
According to police, a firearm was located by officers in a nearby business parking lot and evidence indicates it was dropped by the suspect as he was fleeing.
The suspect was arrested and charges are pending.
