A man was taken into custody following a domestic-related incident that prompted a police response and barricade situation in Northwest Miami-Dade, authorities said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Miami-Dade Sheriff\u2019s Office said deputies were dispatched at about 10:15 a.m., Friday, to the 14100 block of Northwest Fifth Avenue after receiving reports of a domestic incident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Investigators said the victim was able to escape the residence, while the subject \u2014 described as an adult male \u2014 barricaded himself inside the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Law enforcement secured the area and worked the scene for several hours as negotiations continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Residents who live nearby had to wait several hours to back back in their own homes as the standoff unfolded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I called my son and went to go look and see what’s happening, he sees the police and he doesn’t see anything else. Maybe the people are inside the house,” a local area resident said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At around 3 p.m., the man was taken into custody and placed into a Miami-Dade Fire Rescue vehicle. No injuries were immediately reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Authorities have not released the identities of those involved or details about what led up to the incident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
