SPOKANE, Wash. —

Spokane police say a SWAT team ended a seven-hour standoff by arresting a man accused of breaking into a home, threatening officers and neighbors with a machete and barricading himself in his apartment behind a skateboard shop.

Police fired several gas canisters into the building Wednesday morning, and then entered. Police brought a handcuffed man out at about 10 a.m.

Police spokeswoman Monique Cotton says 39-year-old Glen Fisher was arrested for investigation of first-degree burglary and third-degree assault.
