    A woman is in custody after a SWAT situation in Pittsburgh.

    Allegheny County dispatchers say police were called to the 5400 block of Stanton Avenue in the East Liberty/Stanton Heights area.

    The woman had barricaded herself inside and reportedly had a weapon.

    Residents in nearby units had to be evacuated.

    Police say the woman had a criminal warrant but was eventually taken into custody and will be taken to the Allegheny County Jail.

    A pit bull was left inside the apartment. It was taken by Animal Care and Control.
