Man arrested after police stand-off in Redcar


A man was arrested after a stand-off with police in Redcar last night.


Specially trained officers were sent to Station Road at about 8.10pm to deal with a man who had locked himself in a flat.


He was allegedly throwing glass bottles out of a window and making threats to injure himself.


The road was shut for around an hour while the incident was ongoing. Police forced entry to the flat and arrested the 48-year-old.


He was taken to hospital with minor injuries, and arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage to a motor vehicle and making threats with intent to endanger life.
