OUTAGAMIE COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) – Outagamie County authorities have arrested two people, which ended a nearly five-hour standoff Wednesday.
The sheriff’s department arrived with a search warrant to a house on Highway 76 in the Town of Ellington around 10 a.m. Authorities were looking for stolen property.
Deputies arrested one person, but two others ran to a barn on the property and barricaded themselves inside. Law enforcement officers went inside the barn around 3 p.m. and made the arrests.
A bomb robot was used because deputies weren’t sure what was inside the barn. Also on scene were SWAT teams and drug agents.
