DRW Stand Off Leads to Arrest

DESCHUTES RIVER WOODS, OR -- Deschutes County Sheriff's Deputies responded to the home on Shoshone Road last night and found an Oregon City man outside, armed with a knife. He refused orders to put down the knife and deputies were able to get other family members to safety. 

 

Bend Police and Oregon State Police arrived to assist, and the man challenged officers to shoot him. He then started cutting his arms and stabbing himself and officers tried to subdue him using bean-bag rounds.
 
He retreated into the home while police continued to try to talk to him.
 
After 20 minutes, the man came back outside and was taken into custody without incident. He was taken to St. Charles hospital for treatment of his injuries and a mental health evaluation.
