Standoff in Arlington has ended

Star-Telegram Staff Writer Nate Jones in Arlington reports that the SWAT standoff with an alleged parole violator has ended with the man's arrest.

Man tells cops: 'I'm not going back to prison alive'

Here's the latest on the barricaded man in Arlington.

Police say he's a suspected parole violator who is holed-up in a mobile-home unit in the 2200 block of Sweetpea Lane. Tactical officers are trying to coax him out.

The incident began at around 10:30 a.m. when police went to see him about violating the terms of his release in connection with a sexual assault charge.

His response: "I'm not going back to prison alive."

Staff Writer Nathaniel Jones reports.
