SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A nearly nine-hour-long standoff came to a peaceful end late Saturday night in Sacramento.
Around 1:07 p.m. Saturday, officers with the Sacramento Police Department were sent to the 3000 block of C Street to serve a warrant, officials said.
The suspect, identified as 37-year-old Alexander Hoch, refused to exit the home prompting a SWAT team to respond, according to police. Officers say that hours into the standoff, a SWAT team deployed a chemical agent into the home causing Hoch to peacefully surrender.
Sacramento County Main Jail records show Hoch was booked into jail at 1:42 a.m. Sunday on suspicion of violating terms of probation and resisting or obstructing a public peace officer. He is ineligible for bail.
Hoch is scheduled to appear in Sacramento County Court at 3 p.m. Tuesday.
During the standoff, residents were asked to stay away from the area as officers flooded the scene blocking some nearby streets.
