A man is in custody following a stand-off in Bar Nunn Monday. A spokesman for the Natrona County Sheriff’s Office says deputies were called to investigate a barricaded suicidal suspect just before 4:30 p.m. Monday.

A few homes in the immediate area were evacuated as a precaution, and the Special Response Team was called in. No shots were fired, and officials say the suspect surrendered peacefully to authorities about four hours after the initial call.

The nearby residents were allowed to return to their homes after the unidentified suspect surrendered.
