PITTSBURGH — One person was taken into custody Friday morning after SWAT was called to a Pittsburgh apartment building.
A man with active warrants was barricaded in an apartment along Pressley Street in the city’s East Allegheny neighborhood.
Officers were called to the highrise just before 4:30 a.m. for a report that the man was seen going into the apartment. He had recently made threats to building security that he had at least one gun, according to Pittsburgh Public Safety.
A Channel 11 photographer captured video of SWAT members setting up in the Giant Eagle parking lot.
They made contact and the man surrendered around 5:35 a.m., a public safety official told Channel 11. He was taken to the Allegheny County Jail.
