Man In Custody After SWAT Situation Near Cal U Campus

A person of interest is in custody after shots fired led to a SWAT situation near the campus of California University. University officials say campus and borough police cordoned off a two-block area near Third and Union streets Wednesday afternoon. An alert went out Wednesday morning saying that police were investigating shots fired near the corner of those streets around 9:20 a.m. There were no injuries reported and University officials tell WJPA classes were never interrupted and no students were involved. California Borough Police and the Washington County District Attorney’s office are continuing to investigate.  According to Washington County District Attorney Jason Walsh, the suspect went into an apartment building nearby and wouldn’t come out so officers from multiple agencies and the SWAT team were called in. The SWAT situation went on for hours and eventually the man surrendered to police.  The identity of the suspect hasn’t been released, nor the charges he’ll face. The DA says there weren’t any warrants out for his arrest.
