PLAINFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- Michigan State Police say a barricaded man surrendered late Monday night in Plainfield Township after a lengthy standoff.
Lieutenant Pat Agema told WOOD Radio News it began around 4:30 p.m. Monday when a motorist reported that a man in another vehicle flashed a handgun at him on US-131 near Post Drive.
"The complainant got an accurate vehicle description and followed the vehicle where it was parked in the Northern Estates trailer park," Agema said. "Our troopers responded to the scene and identified the driver at his residence."
Lieutenant Agema said the 42-year-old man refused to come out of the home, so the Kent County Sheriff's Office tactical team was called to the scene. They asked residents in the area near Maple Lane and Pine Island Drive to stay inside their homes.
Agema said the suspect had outstanding warrants. One was for child support and the other was a felony warrant for failing to appear on an earlier charge of breaking and entering in Grand Haven.
"He was out on bond for a domestic violence case. The subject was lodged (in jail) on his warrant," Agema said.
Police have not released the suspect's name yet, pending formal charges. Agema says the brandishing complaint will be forwarded to the Kent County Prosecutor's Office for review. No injuries were reported.
