An Escambia County man is behind bars today after a SWAT stand off Wednesday night.

How selfish. He better have a mental issue or something wrong with his brain to do this.
Great job deputies/swat love seeing the pros in action. Can never give y’all enough thanks.
Good job, and thanks, ECSO SWAT.

in over 30 swat calls over the past 7 years, not a single person has been seriously hurt or killed by swat. This is a testament to the professionalism and skill of that team.
He can count himself very lucky to be alive after his use of a gun when the SWAT team was sent to defuse the situation. Most situations do not end so good for the accused where there is a gun been fired in the process.
Great job team.
