Tucson police officers, SWAT teams, and hostage negotiators were outside an east-side home trying to get a man to come outside peacefully Saturday.

The man is wanted on felony domestic violence charges, and police have a warrant for his arrest.

Officers went to the scene on Pantano Rd. south of Golf Links Rd. Saturday morning looking for him, and were there for hours trying to get him to come out.

The subject came out just after 1:00 a.m. Sunday morning and was arrested.

Residents were told they could return to their homes.
