Overnight Standoff With SWAT Team Ends In Arrest: Cheltenham Police

Authorities said they spotted the suspect's car behind the 8250 Limekiln Pike Wawa around 11 p.m. Tuesday night. The vehicle was being sought in connection with a felony that took place outside of Cheltenham earlier in the day, police explained.

A woman in the car exited when police arrived, but a male suspect " refused to comply with orders," according to officials. Police said he made threats and brandished a handgun before a Montgomery County SWAT team was called.

By 2:15 a.m. on Wednesday, authorities were able to take the man into custody.

No one was injured and charges are pending, Cheltenham police added.

Police from Springfield, Abington, and Whitemarsh assisted at the scene.
