An overnight standoff ended with one person surrendering to police at about 1:30 a.m. Wednesday.

A domestic assault and robbery call at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday later led police to the area of 24th and Felix streets with a standoff starting at about midnight, according to the St. Joseph Police Department.

When News-Press NOW arrived on the scene, there were spotlights on a house at 2320 Felix St. and police were calling for all occupants to exit with their hands up.

After one person surrendered to police, two others could be seen exiting the house.

The St Joseph Police Department currently has a 28-year-old male in custody and they are expecting to submit a case to the prosecutor today, Capt. Jeff Wilson confirmed. 

No injuries were reported.
