Standoff With Providence Police Ends Without Incident

Some tense moments in Providence Wednesday when police got reports that a man was sitting inside of a Ledge Street apartment with a gun.

For nearly 4 hours the standoff lasted...finally police were able to arrest 31 year old Eliott Britto.

Police seizing a rifle but saying what sparked the original standoff.

Britto was taken to the hospital to be evaluated and will face charges in court when he is released later today.

Police are expected to have more for us later today--only saying last night that Britto was known to police.
